I am trying to use HP's USRLIB program to build some libraries for my HP48, but
I'm having a heckofa time transfering the resulting binary file to the
calculator.  The cause of my problems is that I'm actually emulating a PC on my
VAX workstation.  The file format that VMS stores the MS-DOS files seems to
confuse KERMIT and ZMODEM, thus making it impossible for me to transfer the
binary file back to the calculator.  

Now, I have seen a program by Jim Cloos that will take a binary file and turn
it into a ASC string.  This is exactly what I need, but I need it to run under
MS-DOS.  Any chance someone could uuencode the .EXE and post it?
