I guess I'll add my two cents to the ARC/ALITE saga. I was able to successfully unpackage ARC and ALITE, uudecode and download to my ST. Then I ran ARC.TTP on ALITE.ARC and got the proper files. When I double-clicked on ALITE.PRG I saw the introductory slide with instruc- tions on how to continue and heard some beautiful Bach-like music. However, when I tried to continue (with the "N" or "S" commands) nothing happened. So my question is, does 1ALITE.PIC contain only the intro slide or is there more? The music was impressive, but I expected to see more. The only possible problem I noticed was that Xmodem told me it was transferring 192 blocks for ALITE.ARC, but 193 were actually transferred. Any suggestions Rich, or anyone else??? Craig Ziemer mhuxl!cbz P.S. FormatPlus is GREAT!!!

Finally, someone got it to work! The "problem" is that I sent only one *.sng and *.pic file with alite.prg. I had thought of distributing some more of the *.sng/*.pic combos, but decided not to (in light of all the recent grumblings about large volumes of mail). Those of you wishing to acquire more of the original alite music should send email to me, and I'll email the stuff directly to you. -Rich __________ ______ ____ _____ ___ /_________//___ ||__|/____|/__/ Richard E.

Post your *.sng/*.pic combos.
