decompresses to one large file with no extension. What sort of file is it, and how does one use it?

Hmm, sounds like a problem with the build process. I'll look into it.

I used it. The file w/no extension is a .tar file. Give it a .tar extension and extract it again.


Ok, that works.

However, Jim, if you're looking into it, it might be best to use zip if you can. That's something all window users can use pretty easily. Others might not have the tools for tar/gzip files.

Actually, winzip costs money now, 7z and winrar are still free.
I had used winrar to open the .gz file previous post, that's what gave me the un-extensioned file. Winrar treats the un-extensioned file as plain text.
I tried the .gz again with 7z, which, within the 7z gui, opened the un-extensioned file as a .tar properly.
So why not just .ext that un-extensioned file and let it be self-explainatory?
