Re: How do I use a .tar file?

Well, I was totally stupid when I downloaded the .tar.gz file. I extracted it to a folder and opened, in notepad, the TAR file! That's pretty funny. Well, I now know how to actually decompress all the files in a tar format and use them. WinZip helps. - Deryck H - http://www.comp-u-exchange.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ninety-Nine Ways To Die" <ninetyninewaystodie@lycos.com> To: "Deryck Henson" <ussj4gohan@comp-u-exchange.com> Sent: Saturday, September 15, 2001 9:31 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] How do I use a .tar file? > If in *nix tar -xf <i>tarfile</i> > > if it has a .tar.gz then gunzip <i>filename</i> > > got it? > > -- > > On Sat, 15 Sep 2001 20:51:28 > Deryck Henson wrote: > >I want to use and compile the source code for PHP just for some fun but have > > >no experience what soever with TAR files.
