I feel quite proud of myself. i've spent the better part of all day dling and re dling 3 parts of Pride &Prejudice (A&E) episode 3. first of all you have to use HJSplit to rejoin them into a zip file which Java HJSplit will not do so i have to use a separate program, THEN absolutely nothing on my mac would deal with the .zip file so i had to get another program to deal with that because the zip is password protected and the built in OS X archiver wont execute password prompt GRAR. but then to make matters worse, this particular episode zip has a CRC error (some sort of corruption in the compression i'm guessing) so i had to search around a mac forum and get instructions so that i could go into the UNIX and command line the stupid blasted file into submission, but i did it and i now have episode 3!!!!

*dance of joy*

i'm a nerd like that.

in this case i must say i miss my WinZip. with a little tweaking you could make it unarchive even corrupt files.

but hey, go unix, pretty sweet stuff and much simple than stupid zipeg or w/e the hell i dled to get the password prompt.
