    Since Atari 8-bits and most aother computers, including mainframes, use
    different return characters, there will be a problem. 
[...]
    2) Get Chameleon. In Chameleon, you can specify a file is a text file, and it
    will convert the return characters, tabs, etc. while it is sending or
    receiving.

Or use Kermit-65.  Atascii text mode (the default) will do appropriate
translations to/from Atascii as it's processing the file.
