339.1 | De-arc'ing problem | POLAR::GOSLING | Art Gosling - Kanata Mfg. I.S. | Mon Feb 23 1987 12:10 | 23 |

Paul, please DON'T stop posting this stuff - its great!
I tied up my phone for about 3 hours on Friday night downloading
uedit.arc as well as arc22.arc, and a2000.arc from your directory.
I also brought over viewilbm.arc which I have sitting around for a
while. The arc22.arc and viewilbm.arc files de-arc'd fine, but
the uedit resulted in me getting an error upon de-arc'ing
(incomplete header record) and the resulting a2000.hi failed to
display using DISPLAY (bad header). I renamed the .hi to .img,
but with same result.
I would have thought perhaps my transfer was bad, but the viewilbm
and acr22 programs worked!
I used DBW_VT100_25 Kermit for the transfer process.
Anyone else have the same problem?
Thanks
Art

| I used ARC22 to create the A2000.ARC file and UEDIT.ARC. You might
try deARCing using ARC22. I will however doublecheck the file and
upload them again this evening. I used XMODEM to transfer. Seems
to work a lot faster than KERMIT.

339.3 | Glitches | AUTHOR::MACDONALD | WA1OMM Listening 224.64 | Mon Feb 23 1987 14:51 | 9 |
| Whoops ... I created the ARC22.ARC file using ARC22. Since you deARCed
it okay, the ARC programs must be upward compatible. However, the
UEDIT.ARC program is the original file which I deARCed to get my
executables. Since it has not been touched, I can only assume that
there was a glitch either in your download, or my upload.
I will use KERMIT this time to upload it.

| I would also recommend that you copy the files to your VAX and download
them to your Amiga from your VAX. A local download would seem to
be more reliable than going through several thousand miles of cable.

339.5 | did copy to my vax account | POLAR::GOSLING | Art Gosling - Kanata Mfg. I.S. | Mon Feb 23 1987 15:43 | 6 |

Sorry if I gave you the wrong impression Paul, I did copy them
into my VAX account before down loading.

Fellas,
I have downloaded both A2000.arc and DISPLAY.arc and they have both
worked OK for me.
I deARCed using ARC V1.6
Art, it could have been a faulty download.
Regards from Down Under,
Rob
