hopefully those guys are fixing the problem...

as it should...

htick is wrong for this and should not be putting ^Z characters in the
middle of the file... TIC files are text, not binary, thus EOF should not
appear in them until the end IF they appear at all...

however, i may have a "quickfix" for you...
