	Last week (week of the 15'th) I tried to download Matlab
from Xanth.cs.odu.edu.  When I tried to reconstruct the files I
ran into problems in the UUDECODE step.  The message said that 
the file was short.  Sure enough about a quarter of the way through
"unzooing" the result I got the corrupt archive messsage.  Has 
anyone successfully downloaded Matlab from Xanth?  I'm no pro
at this so maybe I should just try again.  For comparison, the 
following is a list of the length of the files that I got during
the various stages of the process.

   Length of the original shared files after decompression:
	first file:                   62791 bytes
        second thru eighth file:      62309 bytes
        last file:                    25932 bytes

   Length of the unshared, uuencoded files:
        first file:                   62077 bytes
        second thru eighth file:      62614 bytes
        last file:                    25755 bytes

   Length of the zoo file             375840 bytes

Thanks for the help.
