I'm compiling like this: "ppc386 -Mtp imp.pas".       I'm compiling for a 32bit machine. Here's a screenshot:       http://www.catch22bbs.com/garbled.png               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,              |09ignatius |07[|15cia|07]              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A5 (Linux)        * Origin: catch22bbs.com >>> >> > (1:340/800)    |
