I don't do the uncompression on the fly, but do people think it's reasonable for me to have bzipped files on my site? Obviously, people using sane systems can deal with them, but I have no idea whether those stuck in the Microsoftian Dark Ages can. In fact, can they easily deal with gzips? -- David Cantrell | Reprobate | http://www.cantrell.org.uk/david "Dave, being Evil is no excuse for indenting like a moonshine-crazed lemur" -- Aaron Trevena
