Actually, silly [STUPID] me (boy, its been one of those weeks), what the problem REALLY was is that I failed to realize that all of the zuu?? files were REALLY uuencoded (why twice?), and I needed to run the concatenated file comsmus.zuu through uudecode. As it happens, shar generated filenames with 01, 02, ... 11 extentions, so they really WERE in the proper order. Thanks for the hint, tho. Thanks to the guy that sent me mail on the zuu->zoo uudecode thingy. Much appreciated, all! Kevin

HELP! I can't get comsmus.zoo to work. On my system, the file is
corrupted.
I downloaded the comsmus.zoo file (in its many parts) from ab20
recently. Now, though I'm pretty certain I did everything right, but the ZOO
archive was corrupt by the time it reached my system. Here's what I did, see
if you can find anything wrong:
(on ab20)
MGET Part*.Z ; don't remember capitalizations
BYE
(on the school ULTRIX system (DEC 3100))
ZCAT PART01.Z >part01
ZCAT PART02.Z >part02
...
ZCAT PART11.Z >part11
(I then editted out all of the message headers up to but not including lines
containing #'s)
SH part01 ;this created comsmus.zuu01
SH part02 ;this created comsmus.zuu02
...
SH part11 ;this created comsmus.zuu11
(I then joined all of the files together into one by commanding:)
CAT comsmus.zuu* >comsmus.zoo
(I then set up to transfer home)
KERMIT
SET FILE TYPE BINARY
SEND comsmus.zoo ;yes, I did use binary mode on Handshake
----------------------------------------------
Obviously I didn't use capital letters on the commands, I just wanted them
to stand out here!
Did I do anything wrong?
If not, could *SOMEONE* please post the put-together, binary version on
ab20? Much appreciated!!!

The wildcard specifier will give you the files in this order: 1, 10, 11, ..., 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. What you need to do is cat comsmus.zuu? comsmus.zuu?? >comsmus.zoo, or something like it. This will give you the correct order. It's not something that you think of, but it can certainly give you problems! Good luck. 8*) -Jesse Jesse Reynolds | reynolds@iastate.edu
