Atari 800 ?

[mellons]

I have downloaded the Atari 800 emulator but it is a file with a wierd extension (Atari800_full_fpk.tar.gz) that i cannot decompress with PKZip.

I think I need another decompactor?

does anyone know where I can get it?

Thanks,

Mell

Winzip should be able to read .tar.gz (or tgz)

it is gzipped then tar'd (like a sort of dual compression). ummm..... Think WinRAR will do all of those (as I think, will winzip...).

It's actually the other way round Axeman, tar'd first then gzipped

Tar puts all the files together in a package, then gzip does the compression.

Download tar and gzip then run tar -zxvf on it

Incidentally, I think people who compress stuff into .tar.gz files that aren't specifically for unix users are either trying to be "elite" or are being quite rude... at least use rar or something most people can handle... :angry:
