ok, for the archives. the files are not corrupt (or so it seems). the main reason i was thinking otherwise is the following: BT puts placeholders in the files which i thought are exclusively of the form "BitTorrent - this part has not been downloaded yet" so i thought that when i see binary garbage in a text file, that's it for the file, it's corrupt. another wrong assumption. sorry for the noise. -f -- columbus had a fourth ship - it sailed over the edge.
