- How about writing a batch file on the 95 to send the files?
-
- I just now used pkzip and pkunzip 1.1 to create and test a 35 KB
- archive on my 512KB 95. There were no problems at all. The system RAM
- to RAM disk ratio was 198:314. Then I set the ratio to 310:202 and
- created and tested a 75KB archive containing more files. That worked
- just fine too. I expect that the Info-ZIP programs, and other
- archivers would work with little trouble.
-
- Are you sure your archivers were not corrupted at some point in the
- process of getting them onto your 95?
