As a new Mac user I would appreciate help from more experienced
file transfer gurus.  I have been succesful transferring files
with Red Ryder by typing:

	% kermit -s filename

on Dopey (or whatever machine) and then selecting "Receive File, Kermit..."
from the Red Ryder menu.  A similar procedure works in the other direction.

My complaint with this procedure is that if I want to transfer 100 files
I have a long way to go doing them one by one.

So...  the questions are:

1)  Is there a real Kermit for the Mac?
2)  Does Red Ryder support multiple file transfer without intervention?
3)  Does any other comm package handle this well?
4)  Should I not be using Kermit?

and out of the blue:

5)  What do I need to do to get a document on the Mac that I can edit
with MacWord (or any editor) that isn't full of funny boxes where the
newlines were?

Thanks in advance,
