Hey anyone who can help,
  How do I properly download stuff from the FTP site?
When I tried the Unarchiver that I downloaded from the 8bit site,
It totally choked on me. And all the rest of the stuff is ARC'ed,
so I'm stuck. This is my procedure:
  At ftp, change directory to atari.8bit
  Then issue a BIN command
  Then GET or MGET as the case may be
  Then I get back into UXA and SX (FILENAME). This works and
I transfer the file OK, but I can't seem to run it properly.
I am talking about the SUPUNARC.COM file; I don't know if I
downloaded properly, or I am runnign it wrong; I tried binary loading
it from DOS 2.6f with and without BASIC and it screws up. CAn anyone
straighten me out?
