Where can I find detailed information about what conversions FTP will
perform in different modes and between different systems?  E.g., does
it do byte order swaps in binary mode between a VMS VAX and
SPARCstation?  What conversions does ASCII mode imply?  Etc.

The man page doesn't have it, and the RFC index doesn't show anything
promising. 

Thanks in advance.  Please reply by e-mail.
