Re: ProDOS error $47



 BJ spewed forth:

 BN(JM| I am trying to get a file that is self-extracting to extract on
      | a self-booting Prodos 3.5" disk.  The extracting process begins,
      | then halts abruptly and gives me the cryptic "Extracting halted.
      |  ProDOS error $47"

$47 = "Duplicate pathname"  Sounds like you're trying to extract
something with a filename that already exists on your drive.  Or the
computer seems to think so.  Try renaming the 3.5" and make sure that
there's nothing already on it -- that's all I can think of.

Hopefully the archive you're trying to extract isn't the problem!
