O.K. I've got zoo201.tar.Z
Now, how do I decode it?
----------

The file is a compressed UNIX tar file.  Work from the outside in.

   1) uncompress it:

		 uncompress zoo201.tar.Z

      It will replace the original file with one called: zoo201.tar

   2) extract the contents from the tar file:

		  tar xf zoo201.tar

That's it!  If you want to see what is in the original tar file you can
get a "table of contents" by typing:

		  tar tf zoo201.tar
