games that end in a Z extention

[Adam Myrow]

It's an Inform game which is the same format Infocom uses if it ends in
.z5 or .z8 or maybe .z3.  If it ends in just .Z, that is, the Z is
uppercase, it's compressed with the old Unix compress.  Gunzip will handle
it just like a regular .gz file.  Don't use ftp.gmd.de.  It's no longer
being maintained.  ftp.ifarchive.org is the new IF home, but it is
painfully slow.  I suggest ftp.plover.net as a good mirror with plenty of
bandwidth.  It runs on a Linux server, too.
