Exploring my Linux, recently I began to appreciate bzip2... It's really a wonderful archiver, expecially paired with tar; outstanding compression rate and speed and all... But, but, it would be really useful to me if I could manage .bz2 (or .tar.bz2) archives also in windowsxx, for example for distribution of files among the friends of mine. Do you know any program that can decompress these archives, for example as WinZip does with tar/gz ones?

You may want to get the Win95 bionary from the bzip2 homepage: <A HREF="http://www.muraroa.demon.co.uk/bzip2090b_win32.exe"><A HREF="http://www.muraroa.demon.co.uk/bzip2090b_win32.exe</A">http://www.muraroa.demon.co.uk/bzip2090b_win32.exe</A</A>> There are also precompiled binaries for several other OSes.
