- cnvogel 14y agoIt is gz-compressed, but (1) your browser might decompresses it on the fly after seeing the "Content-Encoding: x-gzip" and (2) most postscript viewers decompress on the fly as gzipped postscript is so prevalent. $ curl -s http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/fasc6a.ps.gz | dd bs=16 count=1 | xxd 0000000: 1f8b 0808 689e 1150 0203 6661 7363 3661 ....h..P..fasc6a
