	I've tried Zterm, but when uploading to a unix system it
truncates all the file names to MS-Dos style names.  Sometimes I also
end up with 0 size files on the Unix side.

	BTW, is there any way to compress a bunch of text files into a
sigle file on the Mac and extract them on the Unix side (and be able
to read them there)?  I thought Mcvert might do this, but I can't get
it to work on unstuffed text files.

It's pretty bizarre to have stuffit and unzoo on the Mac and Zoo and
unstuff on the Unix side.
