Thank you very much. > When I put the thing together, I used the uuencode system that was currently on our pyramid. I really don't know what version or release that was. If you manage to get past that point, I was using pkarc.com version 3.5 to arc the thing together. I know going into submission the program was dearcable, but I don't know what happened after that... If you still have problems of something along those lines and would still like a copy of the program, you can send a self addressed stamped envelope to Marcos R. Della 225 N. Chorro St. San Luis Obispo, CA 93401 along with three disks and I'll send out a copy of the most recient version of the program that I have running. Or if your rich and can afford the phone bill, call 805-541-3358 at 2400 baud and download the thing... So, in summary: uuencoded w/whatever is on the pyramid arc'ed w/pkarc.com version 3.5 it was also split using the pyramid split program...
