| subject: | PKTs & QWKs |
Hi, Paul. What does PKT2QWK (and PKTJOIN) do if you run out of disk space? I *think* at least PKT2QWK just cleans up nicely but reports no message. After my enforced off-line for a week I got a 720k packet, which ended up as a 220k QWK. I was low on disk space, and reckon it probably reached nil during the batch file. Fortunately I was half awake, so deleted some crap and ran the unpacking & conversion again - lo and behold, a six hundred and something k QWK (QWKs are smaller than PKTs). But there were no error messages out of either prog. I think it would have been PKT2QWK which hit the no disk space limit. Regards, FIM. * * You aren't here forever, Enjoy each day as a miracle. @EOT: ---* Origin: Pedants Inc. (3:711/934.24) SEEN-BY: 711/934 |
