Subject: Re: GZIP To: djgpp AT sun DOT soe DOT clarkson DOT edu (DJ's GPP mailing list) Date: Mon, 22 Mar 93 14:10:21 EST From: Stephen Turnbull GZIP does not handle all PKZIP'd files. One restriction is that it only knows how to deal with "deflated" or "stored" files. There may be others. It exits with an error message as soon as it encounters such a thing. So, you may be able to use it, but if you want public domain and reasonable convenience, you'll have to use Info-Zip's utilities. -- Stephen Turnbull The Ohio State University, Department of Economics 410 Arps Hall, 1945 N.
