There is a lot of freeware available from ftp sites.
When I want to download some program for UNIX , I
have no problems. They arise when I want to get a
program for DOS. Majority of files are in .zoo 
format. How am I supposed to download them ? 
Should I send them to UNIX , unarchive and then transfer
to the DOS ? Or I should send xxx.zoo to the DOS and 
then use analog of zoo program there ?

One more question , how can I download file directly
from ftp-site to IBM PC ? There are KERMIT , PROCOMM , etc , 
but they look more like TELNET , than like FTP.
It seems , that I cannot log in as 'anonymous' from
the login: prompt.
