You can download them for free from IBM. Take a look at the following link: http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/enable/site/porting/iseries/overview/gnu_utilities.html It might be worth knowing that GNU Zip ("gzip") and GNU Unzip ("gunzip") are compression only. They're not archive software packages. Usually an archive is created with the Unix TAR utility, and the result gzipped to make it smaller. The extension then looks like ".tar.gz" or ".tgz". Both QShell and PASE come with TAR utilities. -- This is the Midrange Systems Technical Discussion (MIDRANGE-L) mailing list To post a message email: MIDRANGE-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/midrange-l or email: MIDRANGE-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l.
