tar is an archive tool, not a compression tool
tar tzvf is equivalent to
gunzip -c <file> | tar tvf -

vim is clever enough to uncompress a gzipped file on-the-fly: it will
show you the gunzipped content of the file, this does not tell you
whether the file is gzipped or not.
use "cat" if you do not have "file"; cat does not gunzip, so if the
file is actually gzipped, you should get some garbage as output.
