Recently, I became a subscriber to BIX. The service doesn't seem as bad
as I have heard about. The Amiga seems to have a rather large following
and I have found some programs on BIX that aren't on the ARPAnet.  The
problem that I am having with BIX is that the programs are stored in 
what they call the Maxicomm Protocol (headers and packing).  My OnLine
communications package can XMODEM the files, but now I need another
program to "STRIP" them. Does anyone have a BASIC or C program that
will do this. If there is interest (and with proper approvals), I would
be willing to put them on the ARPAnet for access.
