1. SPLIT and ZipDir
<cheese><salesman>
SPLIT v0.10=DFs and ZipDir v0.10=DFs are out today!
Yes folks, they've been revamped, chewed, had decent documentation
written, and have been released in parallel, today, July 24th!
*Why* haven't *you* upgraded yet?!
</salesman> on toast </cheese>
They're both on me website for those who want them, and they're in the
same place the old versions were. The DOS page.
The Euphoria source-code for SPLIT is available from a link just below th=
e
download link for the SPLIT package.
ZipDir now uses InfoZip's Zip and UnZip rather than PKware's similar, so
you may have to download those too.
Some of you may have problems accessing my 'site, so if you want the
packages, drop me a line at the email addy below.=20
Ta muchly,
Carl

Mistake! SPLIT and ZipDir v1.0ß is incorrect. ß is called a 'scharfes S' and
it's pronounced as 2 Ss.
Straße is pronounced strassah in German.

Yes, Nate, but it=B4s also a beta character.
Ad.
4. Re: SPLIT and ZipDir
Rather than post twice, there are two replies in here...
There is a genuine mistake in ZipDir, if anyone has downloaded it.
I've accidentally released a debug version. While it works fine, it
looks a bit ugly. I'd post a replacement *now*, but the systems here are
not up to scratch today, and PC-DISK to UNIX transfers aren't working.
Rats.

This I know, my home town (Bradford, England) is twinned with Hamm in
Germany. We have a road on the outskirts of town called "Hamm Strasse".
Incidentally, until now I always assumed 'ß' was pronounced "dopple-ess".
(As well as "beta" in Greek :) )

True, but if you look at the surrounding characters in a DOS character
you'll find alpha and gamma to either side.
All I've done is found the closest representative character in iso-8859-1.
Incidentally, I'm not alone in using possibly-wrong chracters. Windows'
WRITE.EXE uses the International currency symbol '¤' as an
end-of-onscreen-document marker... :)
