- Hello all!
-
- I recently discovered this newsgroup and have since gone crazy for my
- Commodores again. I'm back to programming, back to playing. I have
- seen a lot of references to ftp sites in this group, and see
- information that I would really like to use, but all the world is not
- M$-DOS. Mine is though. I do not know unix commands to extract and
- read the files I have downloaded (gz and sfx extensions) and, although
- I would love to learn unix, for now I am in Windows.
-
- I was wondering if anybody could point me in the direction of a
- program that could extract these files. They are just sitting on my
- desktop taunting me.
-
- Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.
-
- Steve
