Greetings !
   I ran across the same problem awhile back and found a great
solution, so long as only text files need to be transfered. When
time came to upload a text file to school, I would log onto the
school computer then enter the editer. I would then do an
ASCII send of my text file to the school. This sends the file
just like you would type it in yourself only faster.
  On the JrComm menu, you may need to slow down the rate at which
the characters are sent depending on how fast the editer can receive
the letters. You can change the transfer speed using the parameters
menu for ASCII send.
  I use this all the time to send fortran listings to the school.


                              Good Luck
