I found a program on the WEB "DUF05" that helped me fix a Floppy. I
want to recompile the source but none of the Compilers I have will

copy on the Walnut Creek CD ROM but I don't have that either. If
someone could compile IT for me and send back the results "ZIPPED UP"
it would be greatly appreciated

Bob in WisconsinI did find a Dis-assembler and was able to disassemble DUF05 and get
USE
trebor72@xxxxxxxxxx
addresses
Then I found a Hex Editor and was able to change the BYTE for "E5" to
"C0" which when the program ran as DUC05.asm it fixed the bad records on
the Floppy and I am now Copying off to a new Floppy
Thanks for all the responses.
HOW do I get the files out of the .lbr File
TIA

Q209: How do you unpack a .ARK or .ARC file?
A: (Gier Tjoerhom, Don Kirkpatrick)
Archive files are a collection of related files packed together so
they stay together. They have somewhat been replaced by librarys,
but are still encountered often. The C or K at the end only
differentiate the original packing program, they are otherwise
identical. Some archives are self extracting, just rename them
with a .com ending and execute them. Others must be unpacked with
a program, unarc16.ark containing one of the most popular (in a
self extracting archive). This archive can be found at:
oak.oakland.edu: /pub2/cpm/arc-lbr/unarc16.ark
Q21: How do you unpack a .lbr file?
A: (William P. Maloney, Peter A. Schuman)
A .lbr is a single file that contains a number of compressed files
inside. The files must be extracted from the .lbr before the can be
used.
One very good library extract program is called lbrext.com. It's
simple to use and uncrunches the files at the same time. EXAMPLE:
A>lbrext b:myfile.lbr c:*.* uo
This takes the lbrext.com file on 'A' to extract all the files in
myfile.lbr on 'B' and put them on 'C' uncrunched. A simple 'lbrext'
first will show you how to use the .com file.
Other popular library maintenance programs are LUE, DELBR, and NULU,
the latter being one of the best CP/M programs for handling LBRs.
However, don't use NULU to extract and unsqueeze simultaneously. It
occasionally screws up doing this, and it can trash an entire disk
when it does so.
LT31 is also able to unpack libraries and also supports all
current compression standards (including LZH 2.0!). It is a very
useful utility and can replace several single programs.
Q22: What are all these .xQx, .xYx, and .xZx file types?
A: (Don Kirkpatrick)
These are compressed files, a.k.a. squeezed or crunched files. They
must be uncompressed before they can be used. They differ in the
compression algorithm; .?Q? was the first generation and .?Y? the
newest. There are many fine programs that uncompress files, but
most handle only one or two compression types (e.g. SQ111.ARC and
CRUNCH24.LBR). One program that will uncompress all three types can
be found in CRLZH20.LBR.
Q23: Are any of these .ARK, .LBR, or CRUNCH utilities on MSDOS?
A: (Geir Tjoerhom, Mike Finn)
Yes, MSDOS versions do exist and can be located as follows:
oak.oakland.edu:/pub/msdos/arcutil/lue220.zip (.LBR)
ftp://ftp.switch.ch/mirror/simtel/msdos/archiver/ (.ARK)
ftp://nic.funet.fi/pub/msdos/simtel/compress/ (.xQx)
ftp://nic.funet.fi/pub/msdos/simtel/compress/ (.xZx)
ftp.cts.com/pub/donm/cfx.zip (.LBR, .xQx, .xYx, .xZx)
Also check out the files in oak.oakland.edu: /pub/unix-c/cpm.
CFX is the acronym for Cp/m File eXchange by Carson Wilson. As its
name suggests, CFX is a tool intended to allow quick access to CP/M
files. While CFX will operate on standard ASCII files, its main
strength is its ability to access files stored with the special
archiving and compression methods native to the CP/M operating
system. Specifically, CFX can handle files compressed with Roger
Warren's LZH utilities (.xYx), Steve Greenberg's CRUNCH utilities
(.xZx), "squeezed" files (.xQx), and archives built using Gary
Novosielski's Library definition (.LBR).
