I also downloaded SPL and observed the above-mentioned blank lines. However,
I downloaded the UUencoded program and decoded it on my PC before unARCing
it. I used a word processor to strip all the lines (blanks included) and 
the DOS COPY command to "cat" the files. Encountered no problems with ARC.
I tried running a couple of the sample programs and all seems well. I have
had better luck downloading the UUencoded files than the binary ARC files.
Someone posted Turbo Pascal versions of UUdecode and UUencode a while back 
on net.sources if you don't have them.
