Gnu-zip (Gzip). Available at most ftp sites near you ;-)
Since I am on a NeXT, I got it with a freeware package called
Opener3.1.1. Here is the reference in Opener:
gzip + gnuzip v1.2.3 6-17-93
I think the original proposed output from gzip was .z, but that
conflicted with an old unix utility pack. Hence the .gz.
