Help decoding/viewing *.z files...

Hi,
	Could someone please post something about how to view these files that
	are being posted. Before, I used to just take the .vt files down by
	:decode, and then after changing the permissions I could run them. Now
	I am struggling to get the .vt.z files working! What type of compression
	format is used? I am in a Unix type account, and when I try and do an
	Uncompress on the file it says it is not in that format. Is there any
	chance that any of the .vts could be posted uncompressed?
	I'll be thankful of any response..!
	yours
	Ciaran Hope
