I've looked into this, and officially decide that the 1.05+ behaviour is "correct". Earlier versions had a buffer overflow, that's why the messages changed. The behaviour is not optimal, but a robust user program needs to handle the resulting zero-length files, and I'd rather not risk changing some of the core decoding logic until upstream (uudeview) figures out a better solution. -- The choice of a -----==- _GNU_ ----==-- _ generation Marc Lehmann ---==---(_)__ __ ____ __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / http://schmorp.de/ -=====/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ XX11-RIPE -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
