Lines: 13 Keywords: UUDECODE DOWNLOAD Every time I try and download a binary and run it I get an amigados "File is not an object module" error. What I do is write the file to my space, cut off the stuff up to and including the ----cut here--- line, and run /bin/sh on it. I then usually get a doc file and a .uu file. I then do a uudecode on the file which gives me what I think is the object module. I kermit that module over to my amiga using VT100 V2.7. I then run XCHOP on it (which typically removes a single character) and try and run it. It has yet to work. Am I doing something wrong? (The last time I tried to do this was on the Virus 1.2 program) Thanks -Roger
