Has anyone else had problems downloading some of the latest fish disks
>from our favorite fish archive? I downloaded 2 files today and both
give me -file is not executable- errors after unzooing. One of the
file was MadBlanker.zoo. Yes, I used BINARY and everything seemed to
go okay. They unzoo'd fine and file lengths matched those in the read
me file, etc. Could someone in the know please take a look at that
file and let me know if I am doing something wrong. Perhaps ZOO doesn't
work right on the A3000? I used it straight and from within SID with the
same results and I downloaded it twice also.
Cheers, Dave

Oh how I long for the godd old days when Leo Schwab was posting nifty
little screen hacks instead of the Amiga vs Next or Anything That Comes Along!detert@lognet2.hq.aflc.af.mil (CMS David K. Detert) (12/09/90)
Please ignore my last post about problems with fish disks on MRCNext, I found out MadBlanker doesn't work with WB 2.0 and the protection bits were really causing the problem. It works fine with WB1.3 with the E bit set right. Sigh.......... Cheers, Dave PS. Anyone venture a guess as to why this nifty screen blanker won't work with 2.0? I assume there are some direct hardware writes or something. I sure wish 2.0 would be finalized and released. Maybe, then some of these programs could get fixed. This blanker looks real nice in that there is a small window floating around the screen showing the screen underneath, pretty neat!
