Firstly, make sure that the jar is nice and warm. Next, apply it
liberally to the affected parts, rubbing it in until you realise you've
been had. If this treatment fails, try using the extra-hot variety,
bzip2.

Typing gunzipe filename at a shell prompt uncompresses filename.gz into
mere filename. If you have a .tar.gz or .tgz file, you can extract this
information more easily with the command tar xvzf filename.tgz - and
next time, try typing "man gunzip" before posting. (-:

Call me overly curious if you like, but what do gunzip and BitchX have
in common?
