Somehow, a file was created that has an EOF character in the last byte of the sector - not sure, perhaps it went to the next sector, ... Heck, I have no idea. But I think the fact that there's a 1a in byte 128 indicates a possible problem. Hmmm.. WARD CHRISTENSEN, ]S,MESSAGE.BAK, ]R,MESSAGE.X42,11 ]Oh, OK, this was the known 'extent bug' in the CP/M emulator. Somehow the file gets over 16K, and WHAM, the emulator grabs big blocks of memory and writes 'em to the end of the file. I dl'd it, cleaned it up, and sent it back - the next time we roll around to xxx42 and xxx43 we should be OK. WARD CHRISTENSEN, ]R,MESSAGE.X42,15 ]__AHA! Since the extent bug was at fault, that meant your msg was THERE just in the wrong place (e.g. after some EOF chars, @ the end of the file after more garbage). SO I resurrected both messages with an editor, and then deleted the 2nd (as a dup of the first). __Sorry for the problems.
