Lines: 30 Keywords: binaries, bad, PKXARC (v3.4) I am having trouble unARCing the two recent postings in comp.binaries.ibm.pc: HACK36EX.ARC and RHM.ARC. PKXARC (v3.4) complain that they are not valid archives. I have no trouble unARCing previous postings, such as CGPLT.ARC and even the new version of PK{X}ARC. So I am suspecting the recent postings could have been corrupted somewhere along the line. Can someone please confirm this one way or another? What got me suspicious was that Part 3/8 of HACK, the posting says it has 750 lines, but after I deleted all the headers and trailers, I got 751 lines! The last line looked like this: "MZ\ ". I really don't like the looks of it! (NEVER saw a uuencoded line with only two bytes on the line; ignoring the starting byte). I would appreciate very much if someone can tell me (post or e-mail) their experience with HACK and RHM. If lots of people is having the same trouble, maybe we can get a re-post? Much thanks in adcance. ... Peter/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter Kuo | Bitnet (VMS) : KUO@SASK Accelerator Laboratory | (a.k.a.
