Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

Hi Greg,
        I just tried it and it does work...but
I had to repair the broken lines below. <ggg>  

application/zip         ZIP>TXT|[300]
echo Press F2 now to save the ZIP anywhere 
you like, with any name you like.>$2\necho .>>$2
\nunzip -l -v $1>>$2

The 2 of "$2" got chopped off at the end of
line 3 above when the line was broken.

You need to fix the first 3 "application/" lines.
The 4th line didn't seem to loose anything important.

Eric
