What Is A 'tar' File?
« on: December 01, 2004, 01:10:00 PM »
I was looking and an index file somewhere and cc&p the file which was tar.gz

I had the unzipped file at another server but there's no edit option for that kind of file. Is this something webtv can fool with? /me ducks

Hi Spiral,
There are four forms of compression that is supported here at ZboX. They are .zip, .gz, .tar, and .tar.gz.

The last one "tar.gz" is sometimes referred to as a "tarball". And yes you can extract the contents of a tarball here at ZboX. Just beam the file to the directory of your choice. After the file is uploaded you will see a link to the right of the file name correspending to the type of compression. Click on that link to extract the files.
