I have had NO problems with tar or gz files in winzip... it has worked flawlessly for AGES. (Except for the fact that due to the format it uses a temp directory and actually untars the whole thing to be able to view the file, but that's another matter) > On a sidenote, tar.gz files might get downloaded wrongly by Netscape under > Windows.

And see to that you use "binary" transfer. /Mikael To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
