SF" file that needs CHKDSK to repair. -- Dr David Coe \=\ 58 Fairlawn Drive, East Grinstead \=\ Tel +44 1342 326860 West Sussex, RH19 1NT, United Kingdom \=\ Fax +44 1342 316019 - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
