  Well, I snagged a copy of it, compiled it, found a bug, and fixed it.
Replace line 439

        strcpy(filename,strtok(NULL,"+"));

to read:

        {
          char *p = strtok(NULL,"+");
          if (p != NULL)
            strcpy(filename,p);
          else
            filename[0] = '\0';
        }

  strcpy() (at least on my compiler) will crash if any of the parameters are
NULL pointers, and strtok() will return a NULL pointer if no more tokens
exist in the given string.
