gnu code on NT

[Timothy Phan]

Hi Larry,

  Thank for the information.  Can you tell me how to mount the
  file system as binary?  All my file system were mounted with
  default setting which I do not what they were.
  
  Secondly,  I did not change any single line of code in the
  sharutil and mpack1.5 because I thought one of NT-WIN32 goals
  was to build the GNU source without modification to the main
  source code!

:Did you mount the file system as binary or change all fopens to include
:"b"?  Without one of these two things, all reads and writes will be ASCII.
