It can be uudecoded on a Unix machine if you are careful about how you put the parts together. In particular, the size line that appears at the end of each part must be removed and there must be no blank lines between the parts. Once I got a clean .uu file, I was able to uudecode it and successfully run a zoo -test on the resulting .zoo file. Do people who uudecode things *after* downloading to a DOS machine all have Trailblazer modems? :-) :-) :-) Paul Allen -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Paul L.
