I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I have only been following
the digest for a short while...

I would like to acquire some of the public domain software available
on the Internet at SCORE.STANFORD.EDU 12 I have access to an IBM PC
where I can FTP the files from 12 My question is, how are the
files stored (I assume they are compressed), what programs do I need
to decompress them, and where can I get these programs?

Also, if I simply copy the programs directly from the IBM PC to a 3.5"
disk, will the ATARI be able to read them?

I would aGIC these programs to my Atari 12 I am mainly interested in getting the
Uniterm communications program.

Please respond via e-mail, since I don't always have a chance to read this
digest.  Thanks in advance...
