Does anyone know where I can find it? Actually gzip is included in 386bsd distribution in /usr/src/contrib/gzip. There you will find the source code. The program will compile to gzip. For gunzip, you just link the 'gzip' to the name 'gunzip'. The same program serves both compression and decompression. Or you can use gzip -d to decompress. For newer version, you can get using anonymous FTP from anywhere that provides anonymous FTP for GNU programs.
