Is it possible to disable gzip format for the Matsim output files? Is it possible to select which output files to be produced and have them in XML rather than GZIP format?

Firstly, I don't think the output will write out in an uncompressed format. Secondly, I don't think it should: the compressed output (*.xml.gz format) takes up about a tenth of the space of the uncompressed format (*.xml) - and that's for a compact events file. For a network file the difference is even larger. Why does the compressed format bother you? The visualisers (Via and OTFVis) can both handle the compressed files directly.
