OK. Look for WJG::AMIGA:FF119.ARC *tomorrow*.
I used Pack-It to copy the entire disk to a file. Then tried to arc it
several ways and couldn't find enough space anywhere on my Amiga (1 meg, 2
drives) for ARC to do it's thing... So After I woke up a 1:00am and found my
last attempt failed, I decided to upload it to the microVAX and ARC it there
(with Pack-It) and then bring it into work and post it (which I'll do tonight)

I'd be happy to put 119 up if there's interest?
BTW - Maybe Scott or Steve would put this stuff on MVCAD3 with the rest
of Fred's collection?

| Just to make sure we're talking about the same disk... FF119 is
the latest UEmacs (3.9e??) w/mouse support.
thanks,

AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!! :-)
Hi John. I really appreciate the time you've taken to upload FF120. My local
dealer doesn't seem to get many of the fish series very promptly. Only problem
is: I have an A2000 with one drive! (boo hoo) I'm getting a ProDrive as soon
as Abel gets their shipment it...
Anyway, why didn't you go with the tracker format like the NewTek Demo reels?
I was able to get them dowloaded with no problems. I have FF120 un-arced on
one floppy, but NOW what do I do? I need a second drive to unpack it to, don't
I? Hmmmmm, maybe this will wait for a while... In the future, at least think
about maybe using TRACKER. (Unless I'm the only one in this predicament)
Thanks again,
...richard

re .9
Sorry! I agree with you on using tracker 100% !!!
After dealing with pack-it ALL night, I couldn't figure out
why I used it on a full disk (it's a nice utility for
smaller stuff where your trying to maintain directories
without taking a track-for-track image of the floppy
as tracker does)...
I'll do one with tracker and post it...
But you won't see it till Monday or Tuesday.
re .10
I have plenty of space on WJG:: if you run out.

| 1157.12 | PACK-IT error with FF120 | PUERTO::ALVAREZ | Miguel,from sunny Puerto Rico | Mon Feb 15 1988 00:47 | 9 |
|
Has anybody succesfully un-packed FF120.PAK ?? I was able to
download and un-arc on my AMIGA FF120.ARC, but when running PACK-IT
I get a "DISK DATA CORRUPT" and it aborts, right after unpacking
the AMOEBA directory.
Do I have a bad copy ??
Thanks for your help.

That very well could be. After finally getting it PACKed, I never tried to
un pack it to check. I didn't get any errors while packing it so I
hoped it was OK.
I'm still feeling quite stupid about using packit after seeing how big
the file was. I'll use TRACKER tonight (homework permitting) and upload a
useable version of FF120...

Sounds like I had the exact same problem when I downloaded FF119.
Same message. Same location (Just as it finished amoeba.arc).

| 1157.15 | TRACKER of FF120 | WJG::GUINEAU | W. John Guineau, RD Buyout engineering | Tue Feb 16 1988 11:06 | 14 |
|
Well, I sorry for all the trouble (Steve's got this stuff down...)
I used TRACKER last night and all went real well...
Copy FF120.ARC from WJG::AMIGA: again. I did it in 20 track chunks
which, when un-ARCed, are about 213K
