This question doesn't really have much to do with this newsgroup, but I
suspect someone here will know the answer.  So here goes nothing...

What needs to be done to files ending in '.Z'  (eg. filename.ext.Z) to make
them usable?  I assume they are archived.  I guess I just need to know the
name of the archiver so I can get it from an FTP server somewhere.

				Thanks for any help you can give!
