HELP! I just downloaded United-20.hqx from the sumex archive, transferred to my Mac+ with 1Meg RAM, binhexed, unstuffed, and ran it. It crashed my system. Anyone else have this problem? /----------------------------\ /----------------------------------------\ | John Price | BITNET: price@uclaph | | 5-145 Knudsen Hall | Internet: jprice@uclapp.physics.ucla.edu | | UCLA Dept. of Physics | DECnet: uclapp::jprice | | Los Angeles, CA 90024-1547 | YellNet: 213-825-2259 | \----------------------------/ \----------------------------------------/

It does a great job filtering and catting, but I consider it to be an extremely rude and ill-mannered piece of code.

Has anyone seen these problems 1.04, which I like and use with no problems? What is 2.0 supposed to do better? -- Ron Voss Apple Computer I speak only for myself.
