There was a game called "tertis" posted a short while back. I unzoo
everything, and type "tertis". My brilliant Amy 1000 (512K and df1:)
says "command not found". Of course, us well informed people, but not
your average user (listening CA???!!!), knows that means "What you tried
to run really isn't a program".
Sigh.

I noticed that "tertis" was an odd number of bytes long inside the .zoo file and told Bob about it. It seems to have been corrupted between the submitter, and Bob. Perhaps the submitter could send Bob a fresh copy ...? /kim -- UUCP: kim@amdahl.amdahl.com or: {sun,decwrl,hplabs,pyramid,uunet,oliveb,ames}!amdahl!kim DDD: 408-746-8462 USPS: Amdahl Corp.

The program was not "tertis". (at least none that I've seen). I did however, submit a program called Tetrix. I have not heard of there being a problem with the .zoo file. Also, please note that version 1.1 was released about 1 week after the initial version. David Corbin

Would that have anything to do with it?
