- The following is an exerpt from the letter from R.K.Jung reporting on a bug
- in version 2.41 of the ARJ programs.
-
- "This bug affects the operation ef the ARJ critical error handler (invoked
- by the Drive not ready, etc.). The handler will NOT accept 'y' and 'n'
- correctly when the query 'Okay to retry (y/n)?' appears. The handler instead
- accepts '?' for YES and 'y' for NO."
-
- The letter included patching instructions which are included in this package
- in the *.pch files. They are to be used with DEBUG. In the following example
- we will patch ARJ.EXE by typing the folowing at the DOS prompt:-
-
- copy arj.exe arj.xxx
- debug arj.xxx < arj.pch
- arj i arj.xxx
-
- If ARJ displays OK the patch is okay and may be copied back to ARJ.EXE.
-
- You may do the same with DEARJ.EXE, ARJR.EXE and ARJS.EXE by simply
- replacing the name ARJ in the example with DEARJ, ARJR or ARJS.

-
- THE PATCH DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY ON REGISTERED VERSIONS. In order to apply
- the patches to registered versions you should first patch an unregistered
- version and then register it with REGISTER.EXE
