        Gotcha. Just needed clarification on that point, although someone 
lse
here mentioned that it can do it with ANSI codes... I'll believe you.
        I unzipped a file that I got the other day, and it spit out an entire
screen of complete binary garbage (not ANSI, not high ascii, pure binary, 
ike
if I was to type command.com to the console). The rest of the file was 
ntact,
and it had some 'd0oD' comment at the end, so I scanned just in case. All was
ok.
