Stephen, thanks.  I forgot all about that.

FYI, once again I was not very explicit in my question.  The problem I'm
having is from some OS9 files obtained from the RTSI site.  Now all of these
files are zipped, AR'd, lha'd, etc...  But, some of the executables have
padding on them which makes them drop errors when they are used.

Robert, I actually did try Ded first, but was unsure how to determine where
the file was actually supposed to end.
