Description

A TGZ file is a compressed archive format, commonly found on Unix-based systems. It is archived in the .TAR format and compressed as a .GZIP file. Therefore, the ".tgz" extension is short for ".tar.gz."

Software installers for Slackware Linux are often saved as TGZ files. These packages can be installed using the pkgtool included with the Slackware operating system.
