- Many thanks to those who offered help with creating .sfx files. (Not .sda)
- I'm a little further ahead, but still not having much luck... C Smeets must
- get first prize for writing the most contrived, user-hostile program I've ever
- seen!
-
- After running the 'shell' program, I enter the command;
- lha -s a:test.sfx a:title a:<any_program_name>
-
- The program resonds:
- LHARChive creator for CS-DOS v1.10 - (C)opyright 1990 C. Smeets
- REU in use
-
- And that's all! No .sfx file created, and I can repeat this over and over...
-
- I have the following files on the disk; shell,autoexec,if,getram,setram,
- ramdisk,lha,title and a prg file.
- Hardware is a flat 128, a 1581 (also tried 1571 - no difference) and a 1750.
- (I did have RAMLInk in, but also no difference with it unplugged).
-
- I'm now into my third week of trying to get this CS-DOS LHARC thing to work
- and do have a serious and priority use for it.
-
- Does anyone know what could be wrong?? I'm assuming my copies are not bugged
- or corrupted - I received them via ftp.
-
- Thanks in advance...
-
- Cheers - Kirk
