I just dowloaded the 64 emulator (A64.LHW) from New-Xanth. It seems
that the file 'A64.font' under the Fonts directory is corrupted. I get
a read/write error when I try to copy the file. I un-lhwarped it twice,
getting the error both times. So could someone send me 'A64.font',
or let me know another place to get it? Please!!!!! Also, has anyone
else had this problem, if so, maybe it needs to be reposted.
Thanks...

I first downloaded A64.LHW, which had a whole bunch of corrupted files. Then I tried three lhw files, C64_00-25.lhw, C64_26-50.lhw, and C64_51-79.lhw. These suffered the same file corruption. Finally I found thea64package.lzh, which had all the files, but no directory structure. After figuring out the structure, which I found from the previous archives, I managed to get it working and sent in my registration. Summary: GET "thea64package.lzh" !!!!!!!! ---------------- Felix A. Lugo coco@ihlpy.att.com att!ihlpy!coco

Lugo > coco@ihlpy.att.com > att!ihlpy!coco I had the same problem too, so ya know what I did? I uploaded the package that's called "A64PERFECT!!!.ZIP" I used ZIP because 1) it was fast 2) it was fast and 3) it was fast I also used it to preserve file structure. So, I put it all together, and whamo! a working copy. So, everybody, read the doc file, then blow go-64 off the map! jeremym@brahms.udel.edu Leave me mail once you download A64PERFECT!!! I want to see who gets it! thanks! ps: whoever's making that 14mhz hack! Lemme know how *YOU'RE* doing it!!! jeremym@brahms.udel.edu -Come and take a ride on the Scheeme train...

Can I just say something "guys"... The Very FIRST version of the A64Emulator
that was uploaded to abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov, I downloaded, and it extracted
PERFECTLY... Believe me, its sitting here on a disk all unlharc'd...
I don't know whats all happening with everyone...
Does anyone realize, it sometimes helps to BILF the file before downloading
it? If your going to download with kermit (yeech!) you generally have to
BILF fixed block size... (and make sure both sides of kermit running
know your doing a 8-bit binary file...).. and if your gonna use ZModem
I dont think the Bilfing matters... though I think Ive usually had more
success with it being Bilfed to stream/linefeed...
Just my 2 cents worth... (Why did anyone remove the first upload of it
when it worked!!!)

So, everybody, get this file, emulate the 64, and have a blast. That atari emulator, however, doesn't seem to wanna work in my a500 with 2 megs, and 40 meg hd. So, I turned off the extra meg and 40, . Still no go. Anyone know why??? jeremym@brahms.udel.edu

Ok... but now it's gone. I have uploaded (as far as I know) the only *PERFECT* copy of a64. Hence the upload title -> 'A64PERFECT!!.ZIP' So for all those people who think that the font is corrupted, or whatever... it's not that bad. Either fix the structure yourself munching thru the documetation, or do the easy thing and just set type I (binary) and download that sucker. A64PERFECT!!.ZIP As far as I know... that's it! > Just my 2 cents worth... (Why did anyone remove the first upload of it > when it worked!!!) Maybe it was simply a mistake. :) jeremym@brahms.udel.edu -Come and take a ride on the Scheme train...

Hello,
I have a working version of that font if anyone is interested. If there
is sufficient interest, I'll just post it to ABCFD20. I am just not too sure
that everyone hasn't already gotten it or even if it has been posted to abcfd20
as I haven't been able to ftp there for the last couple of days.
