Hi Mark,

Many thanks for testing this script! :-)

No, this additional space is a typo in the message.
Good catch! :-D

CRC32.exe works on the command prompt
but not inside LiveCode. 

It does not produce errors and do not create any file.
It does not produce anything. Nothing at all

I am testing this using Rev 2.8 and 4.0 
using this DOS program:

downloaded from this page:

Now, my curiosity is awakened with your answer.
How do you test a Dos program using Mac OS X?

Thanks in advance!
