Subject: UC crc questions

I read your message again and edited your chart to show the proper
method for uploading the A.TXT and B.COM files.  Remember that text
files stored under Unix do not have Carriage Returns, only Line Feeds
at the end of each line.  Also the trailing control-Z's from CP/M text
files are NOT stored on Unix.

file       upload            ls -l            uc crc's
name       method          char count  -c (text)   -C (binary)

A.TXT      umodem -rt         390      C6700080    6C4AFFFFF
A.TXT      uc -rt             390      C6700080    6C4AFFFFF
                                                            
B.COM      umodem -rb        1920      BC1400080   2540FFFFF
B.COM      uc -rb            1920      BC1400080   2540FFFFF

The A.TXT crc from CRCK44 was 0C67, BYTEFREQ reported 512 characters
The B.COM crc from CRCK44 was 2540, BYTEFREQ reported 1920 characters

Note that the .COM file matches exactly on byte count.  The .TXT
cannot, for the reasons outlined above.
