unzipping wp

1999-02-03 Thread Brian Morgan 
I've just downloaded wordperfect onto /usr/local/wp and am having trouble
unzipping it.  Maybe it's just because I'm a newbie and haven't got the hang
of it yet.  I type:  gunzip -fd GUILG00.GZ and get the following error:
gunzip:  GUILG00.GZ: not in gzip format.
Am I doing something wrong?  Is there another switch I need to add to the
gunzip command?

Thanks,

Brian Morgan

Rumour has it that you downloaded this file with Netscape, it automatically
unzips it for you.  I'd say just go to the next step.

No, probabley not.  Netscape unzipped  it when you downloaded it.  Do
file GUILG00.GZ and it will tell you if it is gziped or not.  BTW did
you down the 4-5 files or only the bug 20Meg one.  I did both and the
only one that worked was the 1 big one.

I assume that you have downloaded it under ms windows, try to
dos2unix GUILG00.GZ
before
