I have been working with a script to transmit compressed files from one
Unix machine to another Unix machine. I am not having any problems
transmitting the compressed files (when I set file type binary on both
machines). The problem is that when the file transmits, it ends up on
the other end with a .z extension (rather than a .Z extension). I have
tried to SET FILE NAMES LITERAL, with no success. I have also tried to
have the script send the file using the as-name convention (That was a
terrible idea... sent the file with the name of "as-name [filespec]). Is
there any way to send the file and keep the ".Z" extension?
