Here is an alternate method. I use the ftp module of SU-MacIP from
Stanford U. to download files from rascal. This is done in BINARY
mode.

After that, I have to convert the files using MacBinary to Stuffit readable
format. MacBinary is available from sumex and, I believe, rascal.

Piece of cake. Once you know how ;-)

Thanks to all who supplied tips and info.

BTW, I have found that this method works with binary files from the
wsmr archives, also.
