So where are you getting <XXXX> and <RRRR> from? I do not know of
any PC-based system that will save files to a DOS formatted floppy
disk and store load and execution addresses in locations in the
catalogue where a BBC or RISC OS system can then retrive them. I
would reccommend transporting the ZIP file on the DOS disk and
unzipping them on a load-and-execution-address-understanding
system.
