     I just bought a Sider C46 hard drive and it came with Prosel.  I am having
a slight problem with text files.  Why is it that when I download a file
from the mainframe or transfer the a text file from dos, it doesn't show
up under prosel?  Has anyone else had this problem?  Is it a problem with
prosel recognizing text files because I catalog the volume and see the files
when I am in Kermit or using Copy II plus?
     While I am asking questions, here's another someone may be able to help
me with.  Is there any way to change a BIN file into a SYS file?  Specifically
I would like to run kermit in prodos but I don't want to go into applesoft
basic and then run the kermit.  Any way to do this?  Incidentally, the BIN
file also does not show up under prosel.  Strange...
     Please send replies directly to me if you can because I don't always
get to read the list right away.

Thanks,
Chris
