- For those of you who remember my problem with that strange self-extracting
- file a while back...
-
- I'd like to thank Tero for discovering the problem: The line terminators
- were LineFeeds instead of the Returns that any Apple II expects. By
- loading the files into WordPerfect, and then re-saving them again as
- text files, the problem was quickly cleared up. They EXEC'ed just fine
- this time.
-
- Unfortunately, the file itself is Diversi-DOS, some sort of DOS 3.3
- enhancement. All that work gone to waste. Oh well...
