If someone has the Amiga version of Unix's uncompress could they please direct me to the ftp site, or encode and email. I already have compress. Matt Crowd, glmwc@marlin.jcu.edu.au.

From the man page for compress (Dillon's UUCP 1.06D):
NAME
compress, uncompress, zcat - compress and expand data
14compress - 14 bit version of compress,
takes less memory.
NOTE: 'uncompress' and 'zcat' are the exact same executable
as 'compress', just renamed. These 16 bit versions can also
uncompress files compressed with 14compress
SYYNOPSIS
compress [ -f ] [ -v ] [ -c ] [ -V ] [ -bits ] [ name ... ]
uncompress [ -f ] [ -v ] [ -c ] [ -V ] [ name ... ]
zcat [ -V ] [ name ... ]
DESCRIPTION
* SPECIAL NOTE, for UUCP distributions which do not contain
'14compress' but which do contain 'compress', the
'compress' is actually the 14 bit version, not the 16
bit version.

I already have compress. With compress you have uncompress, too! Try to make a copy of "compress" named "uncompress" or use "compress -d <filename>" to uncompress.
