What format for transfer .SIT files? Message-ID: <1990Nov29.225212.952@ucselx.sdsu.edu> Date: 29 Nov 90 22:52:12 GMT Organization: San Diego State University Computing Services Lines: 19 Ok. So it's obvious I'm a newborn to this mac world. But, what should I use, for transfering files via modem? I'm aware of 'StuffIT' and 'BinHex', thanks to many of you here. However, say, if I need to transfer a file vie FTP from a mac that's connected with NETWORK NCSA, and then download a file from the UNIX filespace into another mac that's connected with a modem. The modem can dial into the UNIX machine, and transfer that file vie Zmodem. If you are still with me so far, congratuations. The questions is, can I just use a .sit file during all these transfers, or need I binhex the .sit file before hand? That there is! I really appreciate it if any one could help me on this matter. Thank you.
