Unfortunately, it seems that the LZ* utilities for VMS aren't completely Unix
compatible in these respects.
     
In order to make things easier for some system managers who may not have access
to a Unix machine to run `uncompress' on the tar file (and who may not have
DEC/Shell or VMStar), I'm going to make available on DRYCAS.CLUB.CC.CMU.EDU (in
the ANONYMOUS directory) the file ANU-NEWS-V59.BZK which will be a LZCOMP'ed
backup saveset of the same file.
     
This will also include the fix for CMU TCP/IP which was in the pub/anu-news
directory on csc2 as well.
