Thanks, Garrett. Sorry about the missing G (thank you auto-correct).
But the G in gzip was my cause for concern, seeking a simple cross-platform uncompression solution. Although one can gzip files from a terminal window (and script it to make quick work of a tedious task), it sees an .aip file as a directory and won't compress it without the common practice of tar-ing it first, which then negates the CORE function. I'd like to stay within the CORE library as much as possible, so this should be an interesting project.
