Hello Net People,
I have a .zip file and I want to unzip it. Is this a compressed file?
I am using a Sun 3/60, Sun Os Ver 4.0.3. Is there a program that unzips
the file? This is a VMS or Dos compress format?
Thank you for any help

A listing of the file extensions for compressed files along with a key and explanation on how to uncompress them can be found in the monthly posting in this newsgroup under the subject "Frequently Asked Questions". It is a good idea to make a hard copy of this posting so you can refer to it from time to time (it treats a variety of subjects and points you toward other sources for answering various questions). To find this posting, go to the beginning of this newsgroup (by entering "1" to designate which posting you want to read), then enter the following: /Frequent/r This will scan foward all previously read articles for the string "Frequent" and should take you immediately to the appropriate posting. At least this works on my machine (unix), so you may need to see how to perform searches on your system if yours is different. Sorry if this posting is elementary. S.
