This app was originally posted to comp.sources.misc. The DISTFILE comes from the U.K. Sunsite, by cd'ing to the volume47 directory and using the auto-tar feature of FTP to fetch viz.tar, which gets the viz subdirectory and its accompanying shar files. The extract and patch rules deal with this expected input properly. The problem with this technique is that you can only have one site on the fetch list, because you get different md5 checksums at each site due to slightly different timestamps and contents. Is there a better way to handle this? -- Brent J. Nordquist +1 612 827-2747 >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: Reply-To: bjn@visi.com X-send-pr-version: 3.2
