You'll have to use bzip2 -d to decompress the file manually. I had a similar problem when I ported sort 7.6. Windows can't fork like nix and so there was no easy way for me to enable compression. There is a proprietary fork for Windows but I forget who makes it, and also it doesn't really fork, it just fakes some process stuff and that isn't always good enough. The compile of sort I put out does not use compression, and I'm guessing Kees did the same thing here with tar: tar: Cannot fork: Function not implemented tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now _____________________________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this topic or entire forum.
