This is probably a stupid newbie question but.... I downloaded a program
that was in the form of program.tar.Z. I unziped the ZIP part now I'm
left with program.tar when I do a "tar -x program.tar" nothing happens the
curser just sits there blinking at me until I hit ctrl-c to stop it. Am I
doing this the wrong way or something? I read the tar man page and
everything seems pretty strait forward so I'm not sure what is happening?
