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.
