Sorry, I can’t pull Lara yet. If anyone wants, I can source the sources
give away. But only one... and provided that he is not a lame :-)
I have three tons of work now :-(

Hi, All!!!
Rejoice! :) I fixed the bug with the month and day of the week in Lara!
It turned out that only one bit in the table was wrong, according to
the second month is recalculated...
I remember KVA wrote that some version of Lara also had a glitch
due to the fact that only one bit changed during copying, it appears
well, the same thing happened now (in 2000, in February, it seems
Was everything correct for everyone?).
By the way, this glitch is not noticeable in other months, because... for them
the table is correct...
Who needs it, download Lara from Hot BBS from the ftn aria. I'll just say
that I changed the bit in the packed block, but everything seems to open ok
, because You can write a message, quote and forward too...
Who wants to fix it themselves: in Lara’s candy bar, the offset is +#11 sec-
there is a block #3a seconds long, load it into sts (you can
and less, you need about #10) and give a search for the sequence
#c3,#d3... STS finds it (there will be something like this sequence -
number: #c3,#d3,#e2,#da) and replace #c3 with #c7, after which
We put it in the same place from where we loaded it and you can use it
