If that option doesn't work for you then you could use the free ARP-ZIP product from Arpeggio. It does tars and gzip. There's also a scriptable sftp client to go along with it. Free too.
You can get them here www.arpeggiosoftware.com.

Is the -z flag available? That would run the file through gunzip as

tar -zxvf <filename>


Works in Linux. Don't know if it works the same way on the i.

I have a request from a client to get sFTP up and running. It has been a
while adn the last time I did this both Expect and Tcl were in a .Z
compressed file. Scott's docs worked has documented. As I could use the
uncompress cmd and then the tar cmd to get the code installed. They now
appear to be in .gz format which uncompress can't handle.

What can I use to unzip these to a tar file so I can install them?

Thanks
