[Bf-committers] Project openings

[Bart]

Wouldn't add the*.gz extension because most times gz is related too 
archive software. When you try to open a scene with blend.gz extension 
from desktop blender wouldn't start so may winzip. better disclaim 
*.blend is uncompressed and *.blegz is a compressed blender scene.

This would solve the problem with the gz extension and would show it is 
a compressed file too. both extension could be registred for blender 
without  having problems with other software.

Anybody have an older version could rename *.blegz files to *.blend.gz 
and extract them for opening with older versions of blender.
