Some users have reported trouble compiling the freely distributable uudecode I posted. It seems that Berkeley moved the "index" function to one of their system libraries and some systems don't have it. Here is the missing "index" function, excerpted from an earlier freely distributable uudecode. Just add it on the end of the uudecode I posted. ---cut-here--- /* * Return the ptr in sp at which the character c appears; * NULL if not found */ #define NULL 0 char * index(sp, c) register char *sp, c; { do { if (*sp == c) return(sp); } while (*sp++); return(NULL); } ---cut-here--- --Keith Petersen Maintainer of SIMTEL20's CP/M, MSDOS, & MISC archives [IP address 26.2.0.74] Internet: w8sdz@WSMR-SIMTEL20.Army.Mil, w8sdz@brl.arpa BITNET: w8sdz@NDSUVM1 Uucp: {ames,decwrl,harvard,rutgers,ucbvax,uunet}!wsmr-simtel20.army.mil!w8sdz

It seems that Berkeley moved the "index" function -----text deleted------- On the Xenix system here, the following fix corrected the index error. /* single character decode */ #define index strchr /* <--- added this line to correct the problem */ #define DEC(c) (((c) - ' ') & 077) There were no other changes required. It compiled and ran exactly as the other version except for no checksum errors on files with "M" at the ends of the lines. The output files were the same size. WTYFYS (We Thank You For Your Support).
