RE: Corrupted file x2x-1.27-1-src.tar.bz2

Thomas,

Well, looks like I get to throw this one right back at you.

I right-clicked on the link at:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2002-07/msg00393.html

and chose save as... blah blah.

I did this in both IE and Mozilla 1.0.  The result is that the browser
thinks that the file is an HTML file (both of them thought this).  I
corrected the extensions in both browsers, but the resulting download was
16719 bytes both times.

I would prefer that you either find some ftp space to store this files at,
or email them to me (not to the list) directly.

Harold
