uncompressing a .Z file
|
|
|
| Hi,
on windows/intel platform using perl
I'm trying with no success to uncompress a .tar.Z file, (compressed on
solaris/SPARC using compress )
when i use (cygwin) gzip -d on my windows workstation on the specific
file it works fine
when i tried the various modules i came across CPAN the file is not
recognized as compressed file
any idea which module i should use to uncompress the .Z files?
Thanks
Eden

From the Archive::Tar POD:
"If you have the IO::Zlib module installed, Archive::Tar will also
support compressed or gzipped tar files."
