[Coco] Opening the Coco Archives

[Tim Fadden]

All,

Nope winrar does not work.  I believe these are just straight text 
files, not gzip'd They have a gz extension on them, but no unzipper I 
have tried recognizes them.  They do open just fine in a TEXT reader! or 
with more, cat, etc on a unix box.  If you manually just remove the .gz 
and leave them a .txt you will be set to go.

P.S. I did not try every single one, but I did try more than 10 
throughout the selection.

Tim
