   I have encountered files that are compressed in some
   sort of arc'ed format which have the extension .Z.

Try (un)compress.. You can find it from atari.archive via anon. ftp.

   Also, files
   which have the name: readme.tar.Z seem to confuse
   me.  

First uncompress and then give the file to tar program (also atari.archive).
Should help...
