Hi Jim and the group, thanks for making the basic crc program.  I just used 
it to make a sample message that I hope will stir interest.
********************************************
--- begin crc part one of four 35313 ---
This is a sample of how error detected messages could be sent using a 
digital mode that does not have built in error checking of it's own.
--- end crc part one of four 35313 ---

--- begin crc part two of four 28374 ---
This system could also provide a way to detect errors when broadcasting. 
This could provide the foundation for error free bulletins.
--- end crc part two of four 28374 ---

--- begin crc part three of four 42871 ---
I can not see any reason this would not work.  All that needs to be done is 
refine and automate the generation of the file sections.
--- end crc part three of four 42871 ---

--- begin crc part four of four 55163 ---
Then this would be coupled to some more scripts that would log and put the 
sections back together after receiving them.
--- end crc part four of four 55163 ---
********************************************
Now think what happens if this chopped up file was sent 3 times.  Should be 
possible to write some more small programs that would put only the 
correctly received sections back together or mark any sections that still 
have errors as bad.

Also note that there are no spelling errors in the sections, this could be 
a way to repair any sections that were received with some errors.  Most 
likely a error will cause a spell error, after finding and fixing the bad 
words the person would be able to tell it they fixed the file correctly. 
(This the some of the fuzzy error checking I have been writing about).

I find this very interesting to experiment with.
