Filelathe

.gz · Gzip (.gz)

Inspect .GZ files in your browser

Open .gz files in your browser. Filelathe decompresses gzip locally and opens the inner file in the right viewer.

Open in Filelathe

How it works

  1. Open Filelathe and drop your file (avoid macOS Finder Recents — use the real folder).
  2. A dedicated tool window opens for this format.
  3. Use the on-page controls to view or edit.

Gzip wraps a single file. Filelathe decompresses it in your tab with the browser DecompressionStream and opens the result — text, JSON, or a tarball — in its own window.

Privacy

File bytes are read in your browser for viewing and playback. Unlike upload-to-convert sites, Filelathe is built around in-tab tools. API calls may use filename, type, and small samples to choose or invent a UI.
