Ah thank you, that makes sense. These types of files are compressed using the bgzip utility so that the file can be indexed meaning specific rows extracted quickly (there's more details of this here http://www.htslib.org/doc/tabix.html and the code can be found here: https://github.com/samtools/htslib/blob/develop/bgzf.c)
Hm... that utility seems to say it will result in bgz file extension? So this must be an extraction from one of those files?
In any case, I'll figure out how to deal with concatenated gzip file, and update iopipe. Next version will focus on a bunch of stuff relating to the 2 zip threads recently posted here.
Thanks! -Steve
