Re: RE: [aseek-users] SUN

Files are different because ASPseek do not take into account endianness 
issue. That creates only one problem: files are non-portable between big- 
and little-endian architectures. So far I haven't heard any problem report 
about it. In any case, converting it easy.

Stuckness  shouldn't be avoided.  It's the psychic  predecessor of all
real understanding.  An egoless acceptance of stuckness is a key to an
understanding of all Quality, in mechanical work as in other endeavors.
