Compressed Files
UNIX compressed files (.Z) are expanded on the
fly. If you have a compressed image, say bigimage.rgb.Z,
it is treated as the corresponding uncompressed file (bigimage.rgb).
The standard UNIX uncompress utility must be
available on the system.
"gzip'ed" files (.gz) are also expanded
on the fly. If you have a compressed image, say bigimage.rgb.gz,
it is treated as the corresponding uncompressed file (bigimage.rgb).
The required gunzip filter must be available on the
system.
gunzip is part of the free gzip package
available from many sources; check www.gnu.org
for the nearest download location. gunzip is
automatically installed with the Windows version of
EasyCopy.
"zip" archives (.zip) are partly
expanded. If gunzip is installed EasyCopy will read
the first file in a zip-archive.
