Netscape question

I need to load Netscape on my UNIX workstation. It is an old Pyramid workstation.

I have an Netscape exe zipped file on my NT laptop but I don't have gzip on my workstation to unzip it with. I can ftp the file to the workstation, but I have no way to open it.

My question is what utility is there that can unzip a file with *.zip extension on UNIX? Remeber, I don't have gzip/gunzip.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Kelam,
Are you sure that your Netscape version is for UNIX? Usually, they pack the binaries in tar.gz format. Anyhow, there is a zip utility called 'zip' available in Linux (I've seen it only in Linux so far!). It is compatible with M$-DOS PKZIP, and the commands are same too. HTH,
:slight_smile:

My real problem is that I don't have a utility that will work on UNIX. Also, it's not LINUX so I don't think that zip utility will work.

I may have it on an install disk that I can load.

Thanks for your help!

Suggest you get/install unzip. Here is what we use.... surely an outdated older version:
