Re: Re: Windows does not recognize file type

> The utility "7-Zip" handles TAR files

In this case unpacking the tar (or tar.bz2, actually, I think) file
will not help, though. What the tar file sontains is the *sources* of
the documentation, as a myriad of files in an XML format that is not
useful for end-users.

Sure, the text on the http://www.gimp.org/downloads/ page (from which
I guess the original poster found what he thought were "help files")
could be made even more explicit to avoid confusion...
