I hope you are refering to the copy I put up on comp.sources.misc
(with the moderator's approval, I hope).  From my mail, I believe
that that copy was:
  a.  corrupted by an anti-social mailer, or
  b.  corrupted by a bad uuencode, or
  c.  corrupted by my inept use of uuencode
I am reluctant to put anything on the net until this is resolved.

However, another person also put ARC520.COM on THIS newsgroup at
the same time.  Go back and get it.

Or...
You can keep up to date the way I do,  call a competent BBS.
My favorite is VOR FIDO 125/4 (415) 994-2944, run by the
friendliest wizard I have ever known, Dave Buerg, the creator
of many exciting shareware programs such as "list".
(very busy for excellent reason, use an autodialer).

NOTE: To those who have mailed me on this and have not received an
answer....sorry, but I really did send you a response.  Ever since
the foolishness about the "domains" and the renaming exercise of
newsgroups, little that I do seems to work.  I use the same command
files, I wash every day, brush my teeth....  Attempts to get a 
response from the "cabal" have fallen on deaf ears. I must assume
that THEY have no problems, just peons like me.  (I guess that was
a flame).
