Re: which file for Orca

[Thomas Ward <tward1978 earthlink net>]

Hello, Michael.
It doesn't matter if you get a *.tar.gz or a *tar.bz2 package as you can 
easily uncompress them both with tar. However, the bz2 package is better 
compressed, smaller, so if you are on dialup it makes it easier to grab.
The current version I have is 0.2.6 which I compiled from raw sources.
