Subject: Bad files in <CPM.TURBODOS-SIGI>

Keith - I just FTPed the whole directory and started unsqueezing all squeezed
files.  Two of them, "dpinst.mqc" and "nswpt.mac" failed to unsqueeze, and
caused a UNIX error.  The UNIX error is an artifact of the particular
unsqueezer program I am using, but the cause is real enough:  There is a
high-bit set in the name-field at the beginning of each file.  I used a UNIX
file-dumper program (od -h filename) to make this determination.  It is
interesting to note that the TOPS-20 unsqueezer is able to deal with this
situation.  I copied and unsqueezed the files on SIMTEL20 without difficulty.
