I found the problem....the Makefile uses unzip -o  and there is no command
unzip on LinuxPPC  I have gunzip but it doesn't have an option '-o'.  I got
them to unzip manualy but using 'zcat *.zip > american.hash' after i had
copied it over to the right directory.  how should i change the  make file to
fix this?  gunzip doesn't like the .zip ending either.  I will work on it more
here pretty soon...right now it is time to write up a report for intro to
engineering.
