At the current time, there are several programs which use Fetch Prefs for suffix mapping and transmission mode:
Fetch (ftp client, Jim Matthews)
Anarchie (archie/ftp client, Peter Lewis)
FTPd (ftp server, Peter Lewis)
... MacGzip 0.2.2
If you want to use Fetch preferences with MacGzip, but you don't want to use Fetch, you can:
1) Get Fetch and use it as an editor for the suffixes list.
2) Move the 'Fetch Prefs' from this folder to your Preferences folder and edit it with a resource editor like ResEdit.
• Notes
-MacGzip looks for a file named 'Fetch Prefs' in your Preferences folder, so you should use Fetch 2.1.2 or later. (earlier versions of Fetch use 'Fetch Preferences', just the same name of Aldus Fetch preferences (an image database))
-If the Fetch change the name of its preferences file in the future, you can change STR 129 in MacGzip.
-Fetch can find its preferences as well in the preferences folder as in the same folder where the application resides. If your 'Fetch Prefs' file is in your Fetch folder, you should move it to the Preferences folder in your system folder.

These are the suffixes I have set in the 'Fetch Prefs':
