I have a rather large file on my home dir on a Unix computer, and when compressed, it is very small.  I would like to DOWNLOAD it while it's compressed and then
de-compress it here on my Mac at home.  The 'compress <filename> command uses
Lempel-Ziv to compress the file then slaps a '.Z' on it.  Are there any programsthat are specificially designed to un-pack lempel-ziv type files? Stuffit HAS
Lempel-Ziv, but it doesn't recoginze the text file, and changing it to a SIT! 
format just crashes the system.  Urg!  If there is such a program, somebody
MAIL it to me!  Or at least tell me 'bout it.  Thanks!
