I have downloaded a binary file from umn-cs.cs.umn.edu archives that was tagged with a '.Z' and it is a binary file.(I used ZTerm with ZModem protocol). I have tried running it through: Binhex5.0, Stuffit1.40A, PackitIII and MacArc but none of them liked it! Is there some other program that I need or am I missing something? Scott Flatman.
