[plt-scheme] help! corrupted binary file
I'm using verson 299.400 on Windows XP. I am pretty sure the bug
happened because I had a textbox and could not open the file as text
later on.
I found someone in my class that had the same problem and he fixed it
for me. Thank you to everyone that offered help!
