I'm not 'intervening' in any way that I know of - so.....
how do I 'let Stuffit uncompress' ?????
All I do is click on the URL in OmniWeb - and
it downloads the tarball and alladin does its two step
pass through it - leaving me the original
foo.tar.gz
foo.tar
foo (as a folder)
so....

Well here is the problem in more unpleasantry.
I do the
make dist
load the *.gz it up to the server
then download it - and let the StuffIt unwrap it - and
i have a folder on my desktop - I use a terminal to go
in and check the date stamps - they are - on average about
7 hours into the future from when the date stamps are on
the folder I would generate by hand from the tarball with
zcat *.gz | tar -xf -
This is only a problem when we are doing 'hot turn arounds'
where I code up a fix - and hurl it.... It really does not
matter today that the time stamps will be off on yesterday's
tarball.... but today's tarball will unwrap with the same problem.
