Re: .gz to pk



 Nathan had replied to William:

>file. Also gz files are downloading as txt files. Is this right?
 NC(|    No, gzip files are most definitely binary files. Downloading as
    | text will corrupt them. Text, html, uuencode (.uu or .uue),

True, very true.  Keep the binary things as binaries and text as texts.

Now, the other thing...  Hey William, what version of GZPK are you
using?  Tom updated the program to 2.0-GT but hasn't released it to the
general public yet to my knowledge.  I have a copy but never the need to
use it.  :)
