[Visualpython-users] gz files

Thanks, Ari, for explaining about .gz files. Bizarre. I've edited the text 
on the web site to explain what happens, and that one must remove the .gz 
extension by hand.

Or, as an alternative, you can right-click the link and use the "Save
As.." option.  As already pointed out, browser have a habit of horking
certain files.  I have made it a practice to always right-click links
whenever getting a file that I do not want displayed in the
browser...(.gz, .rpm, .mp3, etc...)

I tried that. With Internet Explorer on Windows 2000 even a right click 
does an automatic unzip of the .gz file, without stripping the .gz!
