Hi August,

That's right. Despite the name gzip is not a compressor that can handle .zip
files. Gzip is for .gz files. Besides gzip is just a compressor not an
archiver. On it's own it can only compress 1 file at a time, so you can't
create bundles with it (that contain more than 1 file)...


Bye, Wilfred.
