[comp.sys.apple] Problems creating SUPERPRINT

JDA@NIHCU.BITNET (Doug Ashbrook) (12/12/88)

I was very interested in trying out Chris Shatara's SUPERPRINT
program that was recently posted to the APPLE2-L list.  I first broke
the file into the two parts and downloaded them from my mainframe to
my Apple //gs using Kermit.  Part 1 EXECed correctly and created
SUPPRINT.1, but when I EXECed part 2, I got "ERROR" during the E00G
instruction after the BSAVE.  Hoping that only the file dates were
incorrect, I went ahead and ran the last 4 lines (a glue program that
creates SUPPRINT.BQY) and then attempted to extract the program with
BLU 2.28.  Unfortunately, both BLU 2.28 and 2.27 reported a checksum
error (internal error $76).

Thinking that the file may have been corrupted during its trip from
BROWNVM to my mainframe, I requested a copy from the APPLE2-L
listserver.  A comparison of the two files showed that they were
identical, but I went ahead and downloaded the new copy with exactly
the same results.

Has anyone been successful in getting this program to run?  I assume
that the file must have been corrupted during its transmission
between Chris Shatara and Chris Chung (of APPLE2-L fame at BROWNVM).
Could Chris Shatara please send another copy to the APPLE2-L list?
