    .tar.gz file extensions..

    Isn't it funny that the board accepts zip extensions but not gzip or bzip extensions?
    Some change on that is needed actually...

    Hmmm, .zip is a universal format (except for Mac I think)... In Linux you could use the unzip command and in Windows use WinZip or WinRar..... I know there are a couple of programs for Mac, I just dont know their names

    You can use tar and gzip on a mac now and Winzip opens .tar.gz !
