Did anybody else pick up SPL from Dennis Baer (...!helm!dlbaer)?
I did, and I'm having a problem I don't understand. I hope someone
can help me with it. Baer distributed his program (binary) in
five parts, posted to this newsgroup. I was interested, so I saved
the parts, stripped the extra lines off the heads and tails of the
parts, cat-ed them into one large file, fed that file to uudecode
to obtain spllib.arc, transferred the .arc file (kermit on the
Unix Vax-11/780 (BSD 4.3), ProComm 2.4.2 Kermit on my PC-clone
Z-158), and (on the PC) ran ARC51 on it. First try, I get one
program partially un-arced (BLACKJAC.SP), then the error message
ABORT: stack overflow. Hm, I think, try ARC's t option, which then
yields: Archive truncated in file BLACKJAC.SP, One error detected.
Damn! Supposing I may have gotten an error during the Kermit
step, I transfer the file again to a new disk [ugh, 31 minutes
@ 2400 baud!]. Same result.
I was pretty careful about handling the 5-part postings and
assembling then into one file to feed to uudecode.
Nevertheless, something could have happened at that step.
However, if someone else got the same result I did, maybe the
fault is in what was posted.
If someone knows what I should do next (or even has suggestions),
I'd appreciate some e-mail on that. ADVthanksANCE...
