I have tried several times to download the jfklib.zip file from
eiaida.tuwien.ac.at and everytime the archive is corrupted. Today I tried
both binary and tenex mode, which seem to be same mode. unzip v. 4.01 says

unzip -v jfklib.zip
 Length  Method   Size  Ratio   Date    Time   CRC-32    Name
 ------  ------   ----  -----   ----    ----   ------    ----

error:  expected central file header signature not found (file #0).
        (please report to info-zip@wsmr-simtel20.army.mil)

and when I last tried it with pkunzip, it said that there are several crc
errors in the file.

So, Joachim (or someone else): is it possible to put new version of it on the
eiaida (if this is the problem) or on some else site (if this is the
problem).
