        General comments: 
           Conditions:
           DOS0-Disk, Disk validated, 12 Blocks free on disk, File length
           at least 2000 Bytes, Filename at least 5 chars, Filename
           contains no chars with value lower than $40,
           no Info.File
           Type A:
           LinkHunklengthnCalculation:
           $24C + value from $DFF006
           decoded in memory $909+1 Bytes
           Type B:
           LinkHunklengthnCalculation:
           $25B + value from $DFF006
           decoded in memory $945+1 Bytes
           Travelling Jack 3 is it not, it is type B, I Think. Many
           Viruscheckers have a bug, because they know this one as
           something other than type B;
           maybe they are right. (28.09.91)
