Packages whose filenames end with .ZIP require the UNZIP tool to unpack;
packages whose filenames end with .gz, .z or .Z are unpacked using the GNU
GZIP tool. (.Z files were compressed with the UNIX compress
utility, but GUNZIP can unpack them as well as files packed with GZIP.)
Though the names of these tools are similar, they are not
interchangeable.
UNZIP can be found at:
» unzip.exe for Alpha
» unzip.exe for VAX
» unzip.exe for
Integrity servers
ZIP can be found at:
» zip.exe for Alpha
» zip.exe for VAX
» zip.exe for Integrity
servers
GZIP can be found at:
» gzip.exe for Alpha
» gzip.exe for VAX
To use UNZIP, copy the appropriate image and the .ZIP file (be sure to
use binary transfer mode if you are using FTP directly), then type the
following commands:
$ UNZIP :== $disk:[dir]UNZIP.EXE
$ UNZIP application.ZIP
Use of GZIP is similar, substituting the command name GZIP and the
appropriate image. Help on each utility is available by entering the command
with no parameters.
