- Another thing to watch out for is zero-padding on the end of
- the file to fill a block. The Amiga is sensitive to zero-padded
- executables (this is a problem with using XModem for example -- it
- always sends 128byte packets, filling the last block of the file to
- make a 128byte length -- Amiga XModem's usually have some sort of
- automatic strip operation).
