[hyperSpec-help] Function 'read.spc' is not found

:-) ich nehm' auch deutsche Fehlermeldungen...

That should not be. Could you please send me the .spc so I can debug 
with the exact file that causes you problems?

Do you actually have old version files (hyperSpec would tell you: it 
stops with an error in that case)? I've never seen one besides the 
example files that come with the file format specification.

I don't know when exactly the file format was changed by Grams, but the 
"new" file format specification I have dates from 1997 and the document 
history starts 1994 but doesn't mention transition to new file format.

I just put a proposal to rewrite the import in C/C++ to a list of 
student tasks, so if you tell me that you definitively have old-style 
files I could add another task for that (remains to be seen whether a 
student shows up for that, though).

Best,

Claudia
