20<h2>Unpacking</h2>
21
22<p>Unix users should download the .tar.bz2 archives; these are bzipped tar
23archives and can be handled in the usual way using tar and the bzip2
24program. The <a href="http://www.info-zip.org">InfoZIP</a> unzip program can be
25used to handle the ZIP archives if desired. The .tar.bz2 archives provide the
26best compression and fastest download times.</p>
27
28<p>Windows users can use the ZIP archives since those are customary on that
29platform. These are created on Unix using the InfoZIP zip program. They may be
30unpacked using the free WiZ tool (from the InfoZIP developers) or any other
31tool for handling ZIP archives; any of them should work.</p>
32
33<p>Note that the .tar.bz2 files are smaller than the other archives; Windows
34users may want to install the bzip2 tools on their systems as well. Windows
35binaries for a command-line tool are available at <a
36href="http://www.bzip.org">The bzip2 and libbzip2 official home page</a>, but
37most other archiving utilities support the tar and bzip2 formats as well.</p>
