Thank you for everyone who responded to my post about FTP, and
has sent me a list.  I was able to merge all the received files,
and to actually try some.  However I found myself with another
problem.  I can log into the FTP sites, and download file(s) to my
machine, but how can I convert this file into something that my
mac can understand?  I was under the impression that all these
file would be plain text, which I would then run thru BinHex, and
stuffit to get the apps out.   While that sounds just great, it
apparently does not work that way.  Suggestions?
