Is there some magic incantation I can provide Camino to cause it to download a .gz (gzip) file instead of thinking it's text to be displayed in the browser window?
* Grab Shotgun
* Meditate in front of shrine
* Light some incense, some candles and decapitate a kentucky fried chicken
* Find server manager where the file resides and coerce them into setting things up properly
Seriously though, the server is sending the wrong 'headers' for the file type, Camino is only listening to it. Suggestion is to opt-click on the link to the file and save it instead of letting the download (fail to) automatically start out of the browser.
if you don't have a link in a web page (if its mailed to you or sent via aim or something) put this line in a text doc with the extension .html (don't worry about writing good html)
<a href="http://some.com/file.gz";>click me</a>
and then open that file in camino first
(where http://some.com/file.gz is obviously the location of the file you're downloading)
