Using Lharc on it worked fine .. BUT: >Sigh... Looks Like I'm going back to Lharc...... The latest version of Lharc seems to have a problem also. It complains about unlharcing the last file in an archive, something about a Bad CRC. But the resultant file is the right length and seems to be ok. On my unix machine the file de-lharcs with no complaints. I haven't played with lharc enough to find out if it does this with every file, but it has done it on the 3 or 4 files that I have tried it on so far. There is another bug I have found using LHunarc. I will attempt to describe it: Say you have an archive that has the following files: First/file1 First/file2 First/file3 And you want to put the files into a subdirectory on df1: called Games (df1:games/) so you cd to df1:games/ and lhunarc the archive. It makes a subdir under games called First and puts the files into it. Now back up to df1:/ and do a dir. You will see df1:First/ and df1:games/ Look in df1:First/ and it will be empty. For some strange reason Lhunarc createsthe directory in the correct place like it should, but it also creates it on the root directory also. I am running an Amiga 1000, 512K, Amigados 1.3, Shell 4.01 and using Lhunarc .96 -- John Sparks |D.I.S.K.
