Message-ID: <17856@cup.portal.com> Date: 3 May 89 00:27:00 GMT References: <8904290459.AA02590@obsolete.UUCP> <603@greens.UUCP> Organization: The Portal System (TM) Lines: 23 I've actually have several problems with Shrinkit 2.01... 1) If you copy a file and there is not enough room to copy the file fully, there is no warning signal from Shrinkit. It just doesn't complete the copy. 2) If the file type is not $E{any character} the file will not be recognized as a NFuX file. I have to use Copy ][+ or Block Warden to edit the file type byte to $E0 from $04 (TXT), since most times a BBS sends a file as E0 type. 3) The documentation is just Shrinkit 1.0 with addtions at the end, instead of a comprehensive Doc file. The last is a minor point, but the first two are pretty serious. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | You're all coffee drinkers, no tea for | | kreme@cup.portal.com | you! -- Isstvan | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | DISCLAIMER: All comments are the responsibility of a small purple man from | | the area of Rilos.
