Wrench Extraction of .gz file using 7zip fails
Hi,

My target is to send a file created by Unix process to myself as an excel file. So I have used the below commands to achieve it.

Code:
tr -d '\t' < PROGRAM_CREATED_FILE | sed -e 's/\\//g' | awk 'BEGIN{FS=">"; OFS="\t"} '{$1=$1}1' > file.xls
gzip -9 file.xls
echo "test mail" | sendxchange -a "file.xls.gz" -s "Report" my_mail_id

After receiving the file on my mail box, I save it in Windows machine. I try to extract the archive using 7zip. It attempts to extract and says Data error in file.xls. File is broken

Need help on this.

Thanks
