Trouble with gzip to pkzip?



Anyone out there besides myself have trouble getting tlarson's "gzip to pkzip"
file to unzip?  Well I stumbled across a solution.  None of the unzip utilities
I have on my GS would work.  I kept getting 'Bad CRC' errors or 'Unrecognized
compression' errors.  I tried every thing from gno's unzip to PMPUnzip to
Angel.  Today I had a wild idea and took the 'gz2pkz.zip' file to my office
and tried using my Mac Unzip 2.0.1.  Voila! It worked first time.  I suspect
Mr Larson used a Mac to preprocess his file before posting it and there must
be some differences between what the Mac creates and what the GS expects in
a .zip archive.

I'll post it again as a simple .shk file.
