        ShrinkIT GS will extract .Z files.

        The UNIX program "compress" creates .Z files, and "uncompress"
'unpacks' .Z files.  So if you're on a UNIX system, it'd most likely be
easier to unpack the .Z files on UNIX then download 'em unless you're
really concerned about a little more download time.
