Fruit 2.3.1 gz decompression

[Kaj Soderberg]

Hi Mac connoisseurs,

I'm looking for a tool to decompress Fruit 2.3.1 (gz) with on my Mac Leopard. I see on sites that there is no suitable tool for Leopard yet, as the tools that worked with Tiger do not function well with Leopard.
But maybe there is some good news on this matter that i have missed?
Thanks for any ideas,
Kaj

Get the gzip code here:
http://www.gzip.org/
and compile it.

Normally it should decompress automatically in your download folder!?

Workaround ..... Terminal:

Code: Select all

gzip -d fruit231.gz OR gzip -d fruit231.tar.gz

Double-clicking on a .gz or a .tar.gz file should automatically invoke the Archive Utility, which should uncompress the file.

Or use

Code: Select all

tar xvfz filename.tar.gz

at a Terminal prompt.
