What software do I need to unscramble . bsq files and where can I get it by ftp? Thanks HDM --------------------------------------------------------------- | Heather D.

Hey, I was looking through some of the files at some ftp
addresses, and I was wondering what I would have to do to unpack
them. Do any of you fine folks know? They mostly all have the
bsq.Z suffix attached. I know that GShk can unpack .Z files, but
it doesn't like the .bsq files one iota. Help...
PS - Thanks to all the peops who sent me the BinSCII convertion
thing - it works great.

Finally, use GShk again to unpack the shrinkit file. -- Kevin S.

Thanks for the info on .bsq files. But that reminded me. I downloaded a CDA of some sort, and it unBINSCII'd to a .BEQ file. GSSHrinkit does not seem to like this either. Can anyone shed some light on what this is? Thanks Rich -rich-@cup.portal.com

GSHK can unpack .Z files?! Why wasn't I informed of this? Well, to undo
the .bsq (bisquick files), you need to first unBinSCII it. Then, when that
is done, you take the resulting file and use Shrinkit or GSHK to uncompress
that. When that is done, you will probably have several files (in most
cases).
