Read the FAQ, read the online mailing list archive,
still no answer, so am sending my question here.
I've got b17, which includes:
GUNZIP.EXE 1.2.4 (18 Aug 93)
Compilation options:
DIRENT UTIME STDC_HEADERS HAVE_UNISTD_H ASMV
gunzip's default behavior is to *compress* and not
decompress. May I ask why? And how do I change this
so that I do not have to type:
gunzip -d <file>
every time I want to uncompress something.
e.g. This is what I encounter:
C:\cygnus\H-i386-cygwin32\bin>gunzip resume.txt.gz
GUNZIP.EXE: resume.txt.gz already has .gz suffix -- unchanged
Thanks for your help,
TJ
