- ok, I ftp'd to utopia.hacktic.nl and went under pub/c64/
- and I downloaded some programs. They were like this;
- double_c.lnx.gz
- I un gzipped it, the unlynx'ed it.
-
- Now here is the problem.
- I want basic programs to type in. I don't want to sacrifice a cable.
- When I pull this up after it has been unziped and all that, when I pull
- it up in a dos editor it is just a bunch of unidentifyable characters.
-
- What I am getting at is how and where do I find programs to type
- into my c64 and in particular a disk copy program. If anyone has any
- information as to if I am going about this wrong or has a program that
- I can type in PLEASE let me know.
-
- Thank you for your time.
