5a on Unix machine(HP-Unix). A file
netscape-v30b5a-export.hppa1.1-hp-hpux.tar.gz
was downloaded. But there is no installation
instruction. Do I need to untar this file?
unzip it? how do I do that? please help.

Hi Victoria,

this is what you have to do at least:

1 - Uncompress the file using *gunzip*, which uses a different
compression methode w.r.t. *compress*. G(un)zip can be found
at many popular sites, such as http://hpux.cs.utah.edu or
http://hpux.cae.wisc.edu.

2 - Untar the file at an appropriate location. Maybe you can examine
the contents of the tar file by executing:

tar tvf netscape-v30b5a-export.hppa1.1-hp-hpux.tar

3 - Read any *readme* file present.

success, cu l8r,

Edgar.
