The README file is also corrupted (see at the end of the file).

The zip file is actually intact with no damage, which means the author of the zip file simply included a corrupt readme when he/she created it. I checked and the 2 corrupted readme files are identical, so likely author of the zip took the individual files from the ftp site and built a zip to replace the tarball.

The good news is the damaged portion relates to porting these tools, something not likely to happen.

One of the most interesting comments from the areuh authors is that they built the DOS port to encourage a larger set of folks to write and contribute more 71B software, but that they had no plans to use it themselves. A very generous attitude indeed.
