The story goes like following:Got discette as aad-on to the book Mastering
Algorithms in C.There was file examples.zip there.Results:

mcopy A:/examples.zip . (works fine in any case)
mcopy -t A:/examples.zip .(works fine also)

gzip examples.zip (worked just in first case)
So after some re-think the problem is with gzip and it probably does use
every character even unprintable in compressing shema.Idiotic,huh?
Any ideas ?
