HELp! HELP! with ftp Message-ID: <17112@brahms.udel.edu> Date: 31 Dec 90 07:02:45 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: University of Delaware Lines: 20 Alright I'm really fed up. I've gotten over to the ftp sights and used the get command to transfer the files to my system. So far that worked fine. Then I tried to cat them to capture the text so I could save them as a text file most of the time that works fine but all to often I keep getting a "bad crt file file is corrupt" or something of that nature. As for the files I downed from apple.com, I can't even cat those the just come out in a royal mess. Yes I know read the online documentation. THE ONLINE DOCUMENTATION SUCKS. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE someone tell me what I'm doing wrong ....It's late, I haven't had much sleep There is a stupid fly bothering me, I have a massive headache, I hate hot weather (incase you don't know the normal for this time of year is 20 and it reached a peak of 67 today yeeeech) PLEASE PLEASE ANY INFORMATION WOULD BE GREATLY GREATLY GREATLY GREATY APPRECIATED.
