Last week (week of the 15'th) I tried to download Matlab from Xanth.cs.odu.edu. When I tried to reconstruct the files I ran into problems in the UUDECODE step. The message said that the file was short. Sure enough about a quarter of the way through "unzooing" the result I got the corrupt archive messsage. Has anyone successfully downloaded Matlab from Xanth? I'm no pro at this so maybe I should just try again. For comparison, the following is a list of the length of the files that I got during the various stages of the process. Length of the original shared files after decompression: first file: 62791 bytes second thru eighth file: 62309 bytes last file: 25932 bytes Length of the unshared, uuencoded files: first file: 62077 bytes second thru eighth file: 62614 bytes last file: 25755 bytes Length of the zoo file 375840 bytes Thanks for the help.
