 ml> other than wanting to break the _bundle_ into smaller pieces, i

That's all I needed to do.  The bundle needs to be ported, on disk, to another 
system, and obviously, I don't have a 4 MEG floppy handy. Actually, there are 
plenty of workarounds, but I was hoping there -was- such a utility, for future 
use.

 ml>>> well, if you run 4DOS or such,

 ml> uggg... how do you run your system, then??

Ask Jeff Schrunk at 1:3830/5, whom I just mystified with my "amazing" 
batchfiles.  Something along the lines of the old Monty Python "Confuse-a-Cat" 
sketch. <LOL>

 ml> with its single unblinking eye... some of what i used to do with

It's not the kill, it's the thrill of the chase. :-)

 SQ>> I use AMU to do this.  I KNOW it'll work with the software
 SQ>> you use, and it's free!

It's a terribly powerful program, but not complex enough that you couldn't get 
the logfile processing up and running in about 10 minutes.  I never DID sort 
out the file list generation, but that's for another echo. :-)

 ml> logs (only two lines in a .BAT file for the rename and the pkzip
 ml> command) into one huge archive is enough for me... that is, until i
 ml> decide that i want to keep them and get them off onto floppies

Or CDs.

 ml> not a problem... hope you got yours taken care of...

I will have it corrected shortly, and this will all be a moot point by tomorrow 
afternoon. :-)
