	I have done some transferring of STUFFIT files via kermit to my
Mac using Versaterm.  Kermit must be set in the "binary" mode, I do this
by starting kermit using "kermit -i".  The communications software that
you use must be in "MACBINARY" mode.  If the comms software is left in
'binary', the document that is sent/received is saved as in text format,
not binary format.

	I hope this may be of some help.  I wasted several hours attempting
to transfer binary files using "binary" instead of "macbinary" mode until
I stumbled onto this.
