[comp.sys.amiga] IFF, uudecode, apollo

MARCUS@STOAT.PCL.AC.UK (06/03/89)

Ok, here's a query for Amiga owners who work on Apollo workstations...

Planning to write an IFF to apollo bitmap converter I appended some simple
code to the end of Carter Brock's show.c just to display an amiga IFF picture
on my apollo 3000. Trouble is the picture displays with some wierd corruption (
sort of edge mapped, smaller, distorted images of the whole at certain vertical
points). I've checked memory against the IFF file and it seems ok so I reckon
the problem must be in the uuencoding/uudecoding process of getting the IFF
files to the apollo.

Does anyone have any experience of uudecoding problems of this sort? Could it
be something to do with word lengths?
