It's reading 16m because it's uncompressing as you download. It's gunzip,
not winzip (a different zip, it should work on Macs, linux, unix, and some
Windows), but if it's opening this way, that's absolutely terrific! Thanks

Alan,
Winzip gives an "Invalid archive directory" error (message WZ13), explorer
crashes when trying to open the archive. Also the download's 16.167kb, so i
guess there's no real compression present?
Ha, what,look, i changed the extention to .txt and now it opens fine in
Notepad..
greetings,

Gzipped Internet Text file

The file was assembled, as below; URLs were eliminated - most
of them are out of date. This should create little difficulty
(perhaps some slight formatting problems). The gzipped file
is 5.9 megabytes and opens to 16 megabytes. This is the
entire text to date in a more or less searchable form.
