(RADIATOR) (Radiator) trouble reading tar file

Hello Michael -

The file on the web site is a compressed tar file called  
"Radiator-3.13.tgz", which needs to be uncompressed first.

	gzip -c -d Radiator-3.13.tgz | tar xvf -

Sometimes the web browser breaks the file when trying to download it.

hope that helps

regards

Hugh
