re:Chess Analysis Project data - 2007/01/20 23:26 They're just an oddball form of compression used by unix nuts. Eventually there are utilities available to decompress them. They're not easy to find for the windows op system, but you should be able to find somethin with a google search.

What are the .bz2 files literally used for which are on this ftp site?.

re:Chess Analysis Project data - 2007/01/21 00:11 Thank you very much!

I now likely succeeded as good. I only must use the Windows command prompt ftp command, with IE it does'nt work. As luck would have it (satisfactorily even though I've passive ftp turned on.).

re:Chess Analysis Project data - 2007/01/21 00:56 BZip, a compression program which usually patently gives better results than gzip/winzip. You can download it for various operating systems from

re:Chess Analysis Project data - 2007/01/21 02:14 bzip2 (which creates .bz2) may be oddball to you, but for "general" use, it's the best **lossless** compression algorithm I'm aware of.
bzip2 certainly compresses better than the ZIP algorithm. Despite being a UNIX nut, I don't tend to use bzip2 a lot, as its not so common and its quite CPU intensive. But to compress files well, it does a very good job.

I think late versions of winzip can handle .bz2 files, but I'm not
100% sure.

I've not compared bzip2 to winrar, but note bzip2 is open source and free, and does not come with numerous popups that I find so irritating..
