I'm comfortable with that now. However, I can't seem to figure out how to cope with them when they come in multiple parts (foo.1of5, foo.2of5, etc). Have tried un-binhexing them separately and get error message. Tried concatenating them and unbinhexing the result and got error message. There is no doubt a simple and obvious solution. What is it? You concatanate the files, but you first have to strip out the header from them (from 2 on) and any trailer on any of them... -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= aland@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu | Reality is a function of the delusion factor MB 3130/Brandeis University | For those about to Rock, we salute you!
