i don't know for sure. but i have seen something similar elsewhere.
versabet archives for lottery draws have a file spec that is one line and
specifies how to read the draw file.
the above could mean similar. specs on how to read the rest of file.
without knowing the file size..or file type.
ie: 31 characters per record,139 records,8 fields(?)

See (http://www.erlang.org/ml-archive/erlang-questions/200206/msg00117.html)
Seems to be a compression library.

In other words, it's been gzipped. WinZip will open it, if you change=

Some servers will automagically gzip pages to save bandwidth, if the=
