problems decompressing files

[Chris Sheffield]

I think I found the answer to my own question.  Apparently there's a bug
under OS X where if too many of the same character in a row are compressed,
you can't decompress the file (bug #392 in Bugzilla).  This is not a good
bug.  I'm hoping it'll be fixed in an update very soon.  My development kind
of depends on it.  Anyone found a work around?

Subject: problems decompressing files

I'm just wondering if anyone else has ever had any problems decompressing
files under OS X.  I've got a wav file that I compressed using the compress
command.  Now when I try to decompress it under OS X, the error dialog comes
up saying "error during decompression".  The same file decompresses fine
under Windows and OS 9.  I can't figure out what's going on.  It was even
compressed originally under OS X.  Anyone?
