Use basically any program that supports uncompression: unzip, pkzip,
winzip, winrar, windows commander, total commander, etc. It is like
explaining how to open a webpage: you need a web browser. To uncompress
a file, you need an uncompressor.

Description:
------------
This is a problem with your web site, not with PHP (which is running
fine for me) or its docs (which I haven't seen yet).

On the Documentation Download pages
(<http://www.php.net/download-docs.php> and
<http://www.php.net/docs-echm.php> ), you guys spend a lot of electrons
advising non-Windows users how to make use of Windows .chm files, but
none whatsoever advising Windows users how to make use of .gz and
..tar.gz files. Do you Unix weenies think us Windozers are not worthy
of such concern? ;-)

Also, IMO, you should briefly note on these pages whether the four
different versions of the documentation (six if you count the online
versions) are all equally complete or somehow abridged, and if so,
how.
