[Coco] OS9 C question

[Bill Pierce]

Bob, I was mistaken. It was not the Princeton files but the OCN collection. The name of the archive is "mstest.ar".

I found it when I was going through the various collections and creating "Collections" archive VHDs with everything decompressed for ease of use. Each archive in it's own dir under a directory named for the collection. I've done (so far) RTSI, Princeton, OCN, OS9UG, CCFIA (Color Computer Floppy Image Archive),Rainbow On Tape/Disk, and I soon will have the Cis files done as well. I use VHDs with both OS9 and RSDOS partitions so I can provide the RSDOS files of these archives as well (when available). Where I can, the contents documents are supplied. I will have these up for download soon on both my site and the Color Computer Archives.

Bill,

it might be useful if you tell us which archive file you are referring to. I 
have the complete file archive from Princeton here on CDROM, so I can study 
the code also.
