Sometimes downloads get unzipped without your knowledge and without 
changing the file name.  Try renaming the file to textogif.shar and 
proceeding.

This is what the file sizes are:

-rw-------    1 paul     paul         8569 Jun  2 12:51 textogif.shar
-rw-------    1 paul     paul         3295 Jun  2 12:54 textogif.shar.gz
