Re: problems decompressing files

[Dar Scott]

I may have found a training string that avoids compression that trips 
up decompression on OS X, Revolution 2.1.  Maybe.

Here is my test button script:
/************************/
on mouseUp
  get field "Input"
  get xCompress(it)
  get xDecompress(it)
  put "[" & it & "]" & LF into field "Log"
end mouseUp
function trainer
  local train
  repeat with i= 0 to 255
    put numToChar(i)&"a" after train
  end repeat
  return train
end trainer
function xCompress s
  return compress( trainer() & s )
end xCompress
function xDecompress s
  return char 513 to -1 of decompress(s)
end xDecompress
/*********************/
As is, it needs fields "Input" and "Log".

Put some string into field "Input".  Click the button.  The result 
comes out in field "Log" between brackets.  You might want to try it on 
anything you can find and see if this really does any good.  For all I 
know there is no training string that will prevent the error.  I can't 
prove this will fix the problem, either.

And this will do no good for decompressing what was compressed 
elsewhere.
