Description of the LC package glitch
ZXNet echo conference «zxnet.general»
From Eugene Palenock → To All 13 June 2000
Hello All!
So, subject...
Some _packets_ pkt have 2x00h at the end - and they fall into .bad
In general, everything is easy to treat - if the packet has 2x00h at the end - replace it with
3x00h (correspondingly increasing the file size by 1). And the package is ok
processed.
2All - write scrap to correct packages, or edit LC. I'll get bored soon
fix this manually...

Naturally. It was made by hand, tested on 9x, not everything that is written in
Microsoft documentation about API compatibility is true. Only
It’s not that it doesn’t work at all - some functions... And in general, it’s time to install SP6a,

This is off-topic, but console games also use libraries.

Since you don’t know, I hasten to inform you that “if you don’t share,” libraries
are linked to the executable and it is in this case that its size reachesabove.
