I need a little help. Some time ago somebody asked for the same that I do now, uuencode uudecode compress uncompress for MS-DOS. Some days later he thanked everyone that answered and said that he had got what he wanted. But he did'nt summarize! I wrote him but he didn't answer. There can be some mail problem. I may have missed a summary. Net result - I don't have it! So, sorry to disturb you again folks. But, please, can you provide me with a place where I can get it. If there is a mail server somewhere that has it, that would be very good, or if someone can mail it to me directly. Thanks in advance: Hakan

This starter kit (which I have seen posted twice, now, to different groups) does not contain compress, but does contain 3 other, unrelated, utils. It also contains source for both uuencode and uudecode, where only uudecode source would be appropriate (if at all). #define GRUMBLE Please... if you wish to help, _mail_ this file (after asking the intended recipient) instead of posting it. As a response to the query you quoted, it is about 75% useless, and you have wasted my news spool space twice with it. (not to mention you assume the intended recipient has a C compiler) #undef GRUMBLE -- Roy M.
