- I foolishly downloaded fools.lzh (this may not be exact spelling of
- filename) from atari.archive.umich.edu . I then tryed to unarchive
- the file, but had no success after tring different utilities,
- unlzh172.prg, arc_lzh.ttp, lzh201le.ttp, and lzh201k.ttp. Then I
- tried to delete the folder that contained the garbled files
- from the aborted unarching, but to my chagrin discovered that I was
- unable to delete it! The file names are all shadowed, and contain
- control characters.
-
- I would appreciate any suggestions on how to get rid of the offending
- folder, which is on Drive C---short of zeroing the entire partition.
- I am using TOS 1.0
-
- Thank you in advance,
