info-cpm,
	Can anyone tell me how to port squeezed and library files
from simtel20 to a unix system?  I have been unable to transfer
anything successfully since the change in the squeezer format.
Thank you for any assistance.
	Since the changes in the squeeze format of files archived
on simtel20.  Specifically after transferring a .lbr file to a
unix system, I use itstonorm.c and lar.c from micro:
on it.  If I simply use lar.c, it tells me that the library has
no entries, none used, and none unused.  If I run itstonorm on it and
then run lar.c on it, I am informed that it is not a library.  I
have tried to read the ludef5.dqc files but likewise I cannot get
xusq107.c from micro: to work.  It informs me that the
decode tree is invalid.

On our BSD 4.2 ftp, I use "tenex" mode in ftp to transfer the files from
simtel20 and lu and usq to unarchive them and unsqueeze them. I don't think
you have to use itstonorm any more because all the files at simtel20 were
stripped of that header.
