I used MacTerminal with the xmodem protocol, and it didn't work: the file was transferred, but was just a `dead' document afterwards. Does MacTerminal support macbinary download? What else does? There's also a chance I might get NCSA telnet to work; does that support macbinary download? Cheers, Oliver Schoett Institut f. Informatik, Technische Univ.
