Maybe someone can help me. I made a slight miscalculation in a C program that
I was writing this afternoon, and it trashed my System file. I copied a new
System onto my hard disk, and everything is up and running.
But, there are all of these sounds, DAs, and fonts in the old system that I
would like to have, since I don't have any copies of them (stupid me). If
I try to open it up, I get an eofErr (-39), which is a "logical end of file
reached during read operation" error. Now, I have this 2.1MB file that I
can't read.
Does anyone know of some software that could possibly repair this?

you should always use suitcase if only to prevent such problems (trashed system = trashed DAs, fonts, sounds) -- Bitnet: stel%tank.uchicago.edu@uchimvs1.bitnet | i don't know Internet: stel@tank.uchicago.edu | YOU don't know? uucp: ...!uunet!mimsy!oddjob!tank!stel | ok, so i don't know
