I have jsut started looking at the comp.binaries.ibm.pc newsgroup and have saved a few programs, stuck the parts together, eedecoded, gotten good checksums, etc. When I uploaded the executeable to a pc using binary xmodem it all seemed to work fine. Of course the .zoo won't execute on the pc so I tried renaming to .exe. Then I get some message such as file to big to fit in memory. Obviously I'm missing something important here. Can anyone give me a pointer or two! Also, I've tried getting on the server via anonymous ftp and it always say too many anonymous user's -- What's a good time to try? Thanks in advance!

A .zoo file is a file that has been compressed in the ZOO format. You must uncompress this file with some type of deZOO programme. >Also, I've tried getting on the server via anonymous ftp and it always say >too many anonymous user's -- What's a good time to try? How about 2AM? Seriously. Or 8AM on Saturday or Sunday. ------- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- | Arnold Gill | | | Queen's University at Kingston | If I hadn't wanted it to be heard | | BITNET : gilla@qucdn | I wouldn't have said it. | | X-400 : Arnold.Gill@QueensU.CA | | | INTERNET : gilla@qucdn.queensu.ca | | -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
