RE: RE: [aseek-users] SUN

Kir,

The files are not slightly different, they are completely different in size.
Files on Solaris are absent or much smaller than on Linux. Either there is
some new problem, or I made a mistake changing the code. The fastest way to
find the problem would be to trace file creation. If you can give me the
formats,
I will continue. If you have another idea how to trace the problem, please
tell
me.

    Gregory

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.
