Does anyone have either a version of binscii for unix or vms, or a version of
uudecode for the GS?  I have a version of uudecode, but it requires a shell
that I don't have.  How about one that will work off the desktop?
I need this because I can download text at 9600 baud, through the campus IBM
net and transfer them with the Mac's file exchange.
Does anyone know how to successfully convert ms-dos binary to prodos binary
with the file exchange?  I have never managed it, the files are always 
corrupted in transit.  (and yes, I'm sure I'm downloading correctly)
