Hi. Well, I downloaded the texture.zoo file. Using the Linux unzoo,
however, created two files with the correct names but file lengths of
zero:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 jzitt jzitt 0 Jun 13 1988 TX0.C
-rw-rw-r-- 1 jzitt jzitt 0 Jun 13 1988 TX0.EXE
And reports:
[jzitt_AT_localhost texture]$ unzoo -x ../texture.zoo
texture/TX0.C -- error, LZD not yet implemented
texture/TX0.EXE -- error, LZD not yet implemented
[jzitt_AT_localhost texture]$
Any suggestions?
