MacGet and MacPut are used to send files to/receive files from a larger system
using MacTerminal.  They use three binary files on the host for each Mac file,
and thus do not replace BinHex 4.0, which codes Mac files into ASCII format so
they can be stored/mailed on any system which supports ASCII text.
