Summary: distribution .tgz is NOT compressed

Initial Comment:
the matlisp-1.0b.tgz file is in fact NOT compressed ,
rename to
 matlisp-1.0b.tar and then tar -xvf  ...   as usual.

This is a nasty error , because most people will
download and following the directions on the project
homepage attempt to gunzip the file, this will fail and
they will assume the file is broken or perhaps assume
their download has been corrupted and fruitlessly try
to redown load it.
