Command UNCOMP

Function:

Uncompress a UNIX compressed file (ie. .Z file).

UNCOMP source destination [/V]

source	Specifies the file to uncompress.
destination	Specifies the file name of the uncompressed file.
/V	Show version information.

• Parameters source and destination can contain an optional path. When the destination file exists, then UNCOMP will fail and display an error message.
• Wildcards can not be used for parameters source or destination.
• Also see command UNTAR.

• There should be no need to ever tar or compress a file under Windows. There are a number of archive formats that are supported by both UNIX and Windows (eg. ZIP archive format), which should be used instead.
