Hi, I am thinking of removing gzip support from loading/saving routines,
since bzip2 has better compression ratio and having both in the code is
not useful. Any objections? Vaclav
PS If you have an old simulation saved as .xml.gz, you can still
uncompress it with the command gunzip (and compress with the command
bzip2).
