Subject: dired-do-compress does not *uncompress* .tgz or .tar.gz files
Date: Thu, 04 Sep 2014 17:13:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87lhpzs9k3.fsf@vsl28t2g.ww011> (raw)

Hello,

am I missing something?  When pressing Z in dired on a X.tgz file
dired-do-compress does not uncompress the file instead it compresses it
to an X.tar file even though the function advertises also to uncompress
files.

I'm on GNU Emacs 24.3.93.2 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version
2.24.24) of 2014-08-27

         Dieter
