To disable gzip compression, open the corresponding file in a text editor and change gzip on to gzip off . Save the changes and close the file.
Chrome changed the way it reports (see original answer if interested). You can tell using Developer Tools (F12). Go to the Network tab, select the file you want to examine and then look at the Headers tab on the right. If you are gzipped, then you will see that in the Content-Encoding.
gzip is commonly supported by web servers and modern browsers, meaning that servers can automatically compress files with gzip before sending them, and browsers can uncompress files upon receiving them.
Chrome doesn't seem to expose this setting, but what you can do is the following:
accept-encoding to either: gzip;q=0,deflate;q=0 either should work
