I recently got the source for a *nix compress/uncompress utility, in
roundabout fashion from yetti!yugas!avy. While borrowing a friend's
GMX Micro20 w/2Mb ram, the utility compiled and executed perfectly, but
now that I am using my own system again (Hazelwood UniQuad I (68008)),
the utility compiles fine, but when I run it (without -b option) it
gives me a 237 error (not enough contiguos memory) Supposedly the
-b option allows the program to use less memory, but when I do that,
the system goes into some wierd state where it appears to be running but
every time I enter ANY command after that, it returns a 103 (address trap)
error, forcing me to have to reset the computer. Any ideas?
Also, anybody have source for a tar-like utility that would work with
*nix tarred files?

I think you need to declare the number of bit for compression to be lower. I think I use 12 bits when I compiled it. Search the source code, I believe its in ther somewhere. (I did manage to get it to run under the Uniquad 68008) NJC
