> If you don't have an archiver-tool to handle bz2 files download the
commandline tool form Redhat.
> For Win2k sp2 grab version 1.02 from
ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/bzip2/v102/bzip2-102-x86-win32.exe
>
> All other Windows user should grab Version 1.00 from
> ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/bzip2/v100/bzip2-100-x86-win32.exe
> Download the file and rename the executable to bzip2.exe.
> For convenience put it into a directory in your path, e.g. x:\windows
where x represents
> your windows installation drive.
>
> To uncompress the php_manual_x.bz2 follow these simple instructions:
> 1. open a command prompt window
> 2. cd to the folder where you stored the downloaded php_manual_x.bz2.
> 3. Invoking bzip2 -d php_manual_*.bz will extract php_manual_x in the same
folder
> Thats it.
>
> In case you downloaded the *.tar.bz2 many html-files the procedure is the
same.
> The only difference is that you got a file php_manual_*.tar. The tar
format is known to be
> treated with most common Archivers on Windows like e.g. Winzip.
