The program that created the top listing unpacks files that crash my shell when I try to list their (illegal date!) directory entries. The program that created the bottom listing generates CRC errors. Ever wonder why I don't like LZH programs? If I wanted to squish files so that I could never use them again, I would use a magnet. -- Steve Yelvington at the lake in Minnesota steve@thelake.mn.org
