Hi Kevin, Where have you been hiding yourself lately? I haven't talked to you for a month. So, how are things? Pool of Radiance has been placed on my "to-do" pile. Just waiting for school to end. Then I'll have the time. :) Well, I'll talk to you later, eh? Bye for now, Stephen * QNet 1.03a2: Canada Computer Systems (416) 626-8800 Toronto, Canada

Hello, I am new to this system, so bear with my mistakes.
I use an IBM AT and a Commodore 1 128, but my heart
is with the Commodore. Anyway, is there a program
available out there that will convert a PRG file to the
ascii characters and then back to the PRG format??
Again, please excuse my messy message, in the future,
my messages will look neater. I promise.
Thanks.
Eric Findley

It converts all bytes to printable ascii characters. Maybe someone could post the programs to the news group (Hint Hint!!) > Again, please excuse my messy message, in the future, > my messages will look neater. I promise.

After the drive stops, enter the following, also in direct mode: PRINT#2:CLOSE2 The resulting SEQuential file is in PETSCII. To convert it to ASCII, use KeyDOS Utility, which can be obtained via ftp from the Milton ftp site: Files: keydos128v2.sfx and kdutils2.sfx Host: milton.u.washington.edu (128.95.136.1) Directory: /public/download/c128current The easiest way to turn a SEQ listing back into a program is to use the Batch File Execute function key definition from keydos128v2.sfx. KeyDOS and KeyDOS utilities are also available on a function ROM that can be installed in the 128's empty ROM socket. Send me email for more information. ******************************************************************************* * Randy Winchester * randy@mit.edu * PO Box 1074, Cambridge, MA 02142 * *******************************************************************************

I've been using the UUcoder.prg written by Fuzzy Fox, which will do both encode and decode, in 64 mode. It is in ML, 9 cbm blocks, and extremely fast. Everything either encodes, or decodes on a RamLink in one second. Maybe less, it is hard to tell. The only way to post this to the newsgroup would be to post the encoded version that UUcoder does of itself. Are you beginning to see the prob here? The post could be decoded by those already having UUcoder, and I quess on any other computer platform, and then ported over to a cbm machine. I'll gladly e-mail a copy to anyone requesting it. Or, if a number of requests, then send it along as a post. ------------- Howard Herman INET: 72560.3467@CompuServe.COM
