	Comp.binaries.apple2 isn't an FTP site, it's another newsgroup
(like this one, comp.sys.apple2, or like my other favorites like rec.arts.tv,
rec.games.video, alt.folklore.urban, etc.. heh heh)..

	So at the rn main prompt type "g comp.binaries.apple2" (without
quotes obviously), and then it'll probably ask you if you want to subscribe
to it..

	Then read the files and get software.. You'll need BINSCII or
SCIIBIN (which is Binscii for UNIX) and ShrinkIT.

	Cosmocade is on tybalt.caltech.edu (which IS an ftp site).
