.tgz, is an abbrevation of ".tar.gz", and is unix specific. On unix system one traditional; first tar (Tape Archive) directories and files, and then compress them with gunzip (gzip) - tar does not compress. The file you have is borth tared and gziped, but instead of naming the file filkename.tar.gz, it has been (as is common) named filename.tgz. WinZip should be able to handle gzip (and tar I think). -----Original Message----- From: Ross Honniball To: php-windows@lists.php.net Sent: 24-5-2004 9:20 Subject: [PHP-WIN] tgz files Hi all, I'm hoping to install phpdocumentor which I have down-loaded as a 'tgz' file to my windows machine. I'm not actually familiar with tgz files and have no idea what I'm actually meant to do with it. What does one do with a tgz file? Ross . . Ross Honniball.
