After bombing with NSWP208, I got this version (207) from SIMTEL20. I
am having three troubles.

1.  NSWEEP207 does not seem to accept a file-spec as JCL.  I can type

	NSWEEP207 *.mss
     
    and I will get the same thing as if I type

	NSWEEP207

    I also have trouble using a drive-spec, so that

	NSWEEP207 b:*.mss

    gives funny results.


2.  NSWEEP207 does not seem to want to View files for me.  I get the
first few lines of the file, and then I get what appears to be a
display of the directory (i.e., lines with some ascii text in them and
some garbage, and the ascii text is filenames on that drive).

3. The squeeze function creates a larger file than the original, and
isn't even squeezed.

In case it is relevant, I am running this on M/PM 8-16, on a hard
disk.

help?  

Thanks..
