There is a very well-known utility called pcopy by Patriquin for
this purpose.  You can get it from any well-stocked BBS or ftp site. 
The latest version at the moment is pcopy85c.arc.  Our anonymous ftp
site, chyde.uwasa.fi, Vaasa, Finland has pcopy in directory /pc/pd2. 
Another, much smaller (but also very good) utility is dc by Michael
Mefford from PC Magazine.  It is available just like pcopy.
