Does anyone know how to unpack a file with a .uu.Z extension. I have tried uudecode (no begin line), zoo and sh but none seem to recognize the file. -Roger Uzun

A .Z extension is the mark of a file that has been COMPRESSed - that is, compressed by the UNIX command compress. Try uncompress to restore the file (a .uu file in this case). -- Eric Cotton Commodore-Amiga (215) 431-9100 1200 Wilson Drive {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!eric West Chester, PA 19380 "I don't find this stuff amusing anymore."

Files ending with .Z are (usually) files created by a program called "compress". If you are running on Unix, try "uncompress xxx.uu.Z;uudecode xxx.uu" I don't know where to get uncompress for the Amiga.

(For those of you that sent in 5$, I will send out your disks when I have that done in a day or two.) Generally, if you see Ms in the first column of the file most of the way through, it will need to be uudecoded first. If there are Xs in the first column, you will have to use shar first. If the filename ends in zoo, you will have to use the 'zoo -extract filename.zoo' command. You MUST remove the net news header (if your program won't do it for you). Hope this helps.
