Notes
About Viewing Files on This Site
Files
are identified with file extensions .px0, .dd, .Z, .crypt,
and possibly others.
These files
are binary files. If you are downloading them with a web
browser, you should tell the browser that these files
are to be Saved, not displayed. If you are having any
problems clicking on files that are to be downloaded,
use the right-click, then choose "Save-As...". Be sure
the file type (extension) is correct when it is saved
to your system.
Documentation
items are an exception to this general rule. Documentation
items could have extensions of .html, .txt or .doc, which
can be opened from your browser.
Example:
With Netscape
Navigator 3.0, select Options off the menu bar, then General
Preferences and Helpers. (Navigator 4.x use Edit / Preferences
/ Navigator / Applications.) Look for a File Type of "application/octet-stream".
Make sure the Action is "Save". The extensions should
show at least "exe,bin,DD,Z,px0,crypt".
Notes
for Netscape Communicator and Microsoft Internet Explorer
Users
We have
found that clicking on a .px0 file, and others, will default
to saving the file on your system with a .exe suffix.
There are also reports that .exe files will default to
.htm. This is due to either bugs or configuration issues
with the browsers. Please be sure to save files to your
hard drive with the correct file names.
.px0
extensions
Files with
the .px0 extension are DOS files which are compressed
images of Pick formatted floppy disks. The files/disks
may contain ABS patches in the form of t-dumps, or they
may contain binary images of monitor patches or release
disks. To process these files, you will need the TELEGET.EXE program. Documentation for Teleget are available on our site along with the program.
Notes
for Windows NT Users
Teleget
will not work with Windows NT because, among other reasons,
NT must write to a standard DOS/Windows boot sector, which
is not the same format as a Pick formatted diskette.
