[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] FRAINT16.ZOO - doesn't werke!

snuggs@quack.sac.ca.us (Snugglupagus) (06/20/91)

i just recently compiled and downloaded all 16 parts of fraint16.zoo.
it tested ok, but when i try to run it, all i get is something like:

Oops.  Can't understand argument:
[fractint]

and then it tells me to consult the documentation. (which is online -
very helpful)  anyway, does anyone else have this problem or am i doing
something stupid?  if there was a problem with the original posting,
is fractint available via anonymous ftp?  or better yet, a patch?  i don't
relish the idea of spending another 30 minutes downloading....

I downloaded it and it seems fine, and generates the pretty pictures.  Maybe you have a couple of swapped bits.
