[comp.sys.apple] Z-Link troubles...

dcw@athena.mit.edu (David C. Whitney) (09/26/89)

Sorry to send this off to the whole net, but I lost the original note.

The problem was that somebody consistently could no tget Z-Link to
work. Everytime he ran it, it crashed into the monitor. Well, stupid
question time: did you unpack the package with Shrinkit (after
decoding with BinSCII)? If not, you might try that. I know that I
don't mention ShrinkIT, but I figured that resulting file Z.LINK.SHK
implied that shrinkit was required.

On another note, I've been fixing a few quirks in the getname dialog
and other places. I should be posting later this week. Also, for those
of you who have sent me disks, I'll me mailing them back out RSN.

On yet another note, BinSCII v2.0 is in the works. Main operation will
be the same, but the friendly file dialog from Z-Link will be there.
