Hmm.

Results with various archivers (under Ecks-Pee) on the gzip files:

Winzip: "Invalid Archive Directory"

WinRAR: "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged."

Win-GZ: treats the file as uncompressed data and tries to compress it
- does not recognize that it's a gzip file.

gunzip for MS-DOS: "gunzip: crunch1.dsk.gz: not in gzip format"

What am I missing here?
