I used to open *.gz files with TkZip in 1.0.3. TkZip was gone in 1.0.5 and guiTAR won't open them.
What can I do?
How to open *.gz file in 1.0.5?
I think I used it just yesterday. It was the first time I've tried to look at a .gz file, at least in Puppy, so I wasn't paying attention and I'm not exactly certain what happened, but I think it was guiTAR that automagically opened when I downloaded the .gz file.BarryK wrote:So, is guiTAR not working?
I always use the commandline.
If there is a problem with guiTAR, I'll report it to the author.
I was trying to extract a file called "scanModem.gz" as suggested here. GuiTAR doesn't show anything but only has a line "Invalid Filename" at the status bar. Does that mean file type not supported?
I then installed G2 bugfix to see if that works but it didn't. I think he associated .gz file with TkZip (which is now linked to guiTAR) ...
>> Or use muzip
Thanks Mark, it works
I think I'd better be more commandline savvy and begin to learn how to use gunzip

Short:
To extract a file: gunzip file.gz
With .TAR.gz -files (= .tgz) it is different.
The are packed with tar to 1 file, and then gzipped (compressed).
Extract:
tar -xzvf file.tar.gz
Pack/compress:
tar -czvf newname.tar.gz File1 File2 Folder1 ...
