I could uudecode and unarc quickst correctly. I was surprised when I found
that the `enhanced' version is about 28k, wheras the old version was only
6k. Where does the increased size come from?
The old version worked (although I didn't notice any speedup under
first word+), but the new version bombs (2), or gives a `TOS error #35'
message. Has anybody succeeded in getting the new version working?

I was also able to uud, uncompress and unarc BIGSCRN.PRG. 
I even got a big screen, but it was rather scrambled (the trash icon 
had no subscript) and trying to open a disk icon resulted in a system
crash... (Still I seem to have more luck than some other people 8-).

Ciao!
