    ml> wait! what? are you saying that your linux compiled binary cannot read   
    ml> those messages but the original DOS one has no problems with them?? how   
    ml> are you compiling? are you trying to do 16bit, 32bit or 64bit?? can you   
    ml> be more explicit about "the messages being garbled"?? got pics?   
      
   Yes, that's what i'm saying. I'm compiling like this: "ppc386 -Mtp imp.pas".

    ml> there is no conversion to be done... PKTs are binary and you don't   
    ml> convert them like that any more than you convert an exe file like   
    ml> that... what are you trying to convert the PKTs to?? the tosser   
    ml> ""converts"" them when it strips off the PKT header and then imports   
    ml> each message in the PKT into the message base... that's not even a   
    ml> conversion, really...   
      
   Ahh. I see.   
      
   Thanks,
