Message-ID: <765@polaris.UUCP> Date: Sun, 26-Oct-86 12:01:00 EST Article-I.D.: polaris.765 Posted: Sun Oct 26 12:01:00 1986 Date-Received: Tue, 28-Oct-86 06:45:51 EST Reply-To: darmon@polaris.UUCP (Pierre Darmon) Organization: IBM Research, Yorktown Heights, N.Y. Lines: 17 Xref: mnetor net.micro:6327 net.micro.pc:7338 net.sources:3377 I have made a slight modification to the TP sources of uudecode/encode posted several times to the net not long ago. Instead of filling up the screen with periods, this modified version displays the count of the remaining bytes to be processed. The two advantages are: 1) it does not scroll away the contents of the screen any more. 2) it gives an idea of how much work is left to be done (handy for large files). In order not to clobber the net I won't post. I'll just mail upon request. But if I get too many requests, hum... well I may consider posting to net.sources only. To see how many requests I get, I'll wait a few days to decide to mail or post. -- Pierre Darmon, IBM Thomas J.
