     1. About ...


     It remains only to make the entry in the file
Sprite Master 'a as a sub-directory ...


     If you do not want to go into the archive - it is possible 
to look the first picture of it (click View and View marked), 
therefore, recommend comments to the archive in the form of a 
picture to shove at the very beginning and not wait until Tower 
drive fidgets on a floppy disk and goes through all the files. 


     Fall out from the archive may be pointing
at two points at the beginning or rereading
catalog (New disk, or  + A.. D).


     In the <file size> for ZIP'a displays the size in sectors, 
for multifile size of all files. 


     Human decompress the archive
do well, very lazy (check there
disk space, or not to print any
Posts ...). While unpacking / copier works through # 3d13.

     3. Limitations

     * Available as long as only the first 128
(127) archive files (I honestly do not
hold more than one disk in one file).

     * With a drive up
(Decompression) are on the same disk (files).

     * Copying spoils parameter
"Start" file.

     * For copying the selected ZIP'a
Copy only the 1-st picture of him
with the name and extension Zip'a .



     4. The list of known bugs


     * If the floppy disk bad sector
loader will read it endlessly
(No RETRY, ABORT ...). Correct as long as I will not.

     * Unlikely to see the ZIP
ZIP'e (basic program from the archives such as
filtered).

     * Most likely is somewhere in the shell (the filter).


     Like all ...
