	I'm having trouble with my communications package, Versaterm PRO 2.20.
Whenever I try to use YMODEM to download anything from a BBS, the file is
stored as text (MS Word) and right when it finishes, it dies. I can cancel and
get out again, but the file transfer always shows as unsuccessful. So I can't
upload to the BBS with it.
	The same seems to happen even with XMODEM, so that unless the file is a
GIF (which I can fix easily with GIFConverter) it gets lost. None of the .SIT
files I've tried to download worked.
	Does anyone know if this is just a random bug that I can only fix with
the new version of VT PRO? Or can I fix it? I'd really like to use YMODEM,
since then I can batch download, and I'd like to have my files show as non-text
when I'm in Binary mode.
	I'm using a Mac SE (2.5MB memory) and a Hayes 2400 baud personal modem
(one of those things that plugs into the wall and is completely self
contained). Any help is appreciated.
