I seemed to have had an incompatibility problem with GScii and Binscii on the unix side... I believe Turbo Bee was packed with GScii... When I unpacked it with binscii on the unix side and downloaded it, the archive was damaged, and a file which was in the archive wasn't there. When I downloaded it as a binscii file, and unpacked it with gscii, it worked perfectly... both files were there and it unpacked fine... Has anyone else had that problem?

I thought some sort of error crept in during ftp, so I downloaded it again, but the same problem persisted with sciibin. I also used GScii+ 2.0 to unpack, and it worked fine. Maybe you should try unpacking it with normal Binscii to see if that works. Brian T.
