It looks like only the last two files are >32k. Perhaps there's also a
format problem of some sort?

It seems that I already have that version. Perhaps my "jpilot" isn't
compiled with that lib version, though?

I'll be more than happy to beta-test whatever updates you provide.
Meanwhile, I will pull down and compile both pilot-link and the jpilot
source, and report when I get a chance (I'm in the middle of teaching a

quiet; normally, I wouldn't have even a second to write this.)
