Is it my imagination, or does AIX (RT) have its own idea of what file
compression means?  Is there a way to uncompress standard .Z files
using AIX 2.2.1?  If not, does anyone out there have a public domain version
of uncompress/zcat that I could have?  I really would like to get at those
public domain sources which are stored in compressed format.


Thanks so much,

	Karin Meyer
