	To answer question b. first...With Red Ryder, files that are in
the .bin format can be Xmodem-ed or Kermit-ed straight to RR7.0.
Red Ryder wil convert the .bin file being sent to it to an executable
file on the fly, thus there is no need to use the macput scheme.
	Likewise with Red Ryder you can SEND an executable file to
someone and Red Ryder will convert it to the .bin format on the fly.
The 'Disable MacBinary format' disables this on the fly conversion.
 I don't have a working termcap with me, but I will find one and post
it in a few days.
