- Hi,
-
- The patch information went out to registered users first.
-
- Here is a copy of a batch file to do the same:
-
- echo off
- echo FIX_241.BAT - batch file to patch version 2.41 of ARJ software
- echo -
- rem This batch file fixes two problems with the critical error handler.
- rem (1) The "OK to retry (y/n)?" message does not accept "y" and "n"
- correctly.
- rem (2) Pressing CTL BREAK at "OK to retry (y/n)?" may disable ARJ.
- rem This patching procedure is self-verifying by using the integrity checking
- rem feature of ARJ. Running FIX_241.BAT twice on the same ARJ.EXE causes
- rem no problems. It must be run on the UN-registered version of ARJ.EXE.
-
- if not exist ARJ.EXE goto notfound
-
- echo e0d37 fe b1 f1 12> arj.$$$
- echo e0c63 00>> arj.$$$
- echo eb387 e0>> arj.$$$
- echo eb397 e0>> arj.$$$
- echo w>> arj.$$$
- echo q>> arj.$$$
-
- echo Patching ARJ.EXE
- echo -
-
- copy arj.exe arj.xxx > NUL
- debug arj.xxx < arj.$$$
- arj -+ i arj.xxx > NUL
- if errorlevel 1 goto error
- copy arj.xxx arj.exe > NUL
- echo The program ARJ.EXE has been patched and verified.
- goto end
-
- :usage
- echo Usage: FIX_241
- echo This program presumes that DEBUG and ARJ are available on your system
- and
- echo that ARJ.EXE is in the current directory.
- goto end
-
- :notfound
- echo Error: ARJ.EXE does not exist in the current directory.
- goto end
-
- :error
- echo Error: Patch failed. Check that ARJ.EXE is uncorrupted and is the
- original
- echo *** UN-REGISTERED *** version 2.41.
- goto end
-
- :end
- if exist ARJ.$$$ del ARJ.$$$
- if exist ARJ.XXX del ARJ.XXX
- echo -
