Does anyone know of programs which can encode and decode binaries?
If you do, please tell me where I can retrieve the source.

UUDECODE and UUENCODE won't help because I need to transfer binaries
between VMS and UNIX systems.  FTP doesn't work well. We've had problems
with Kermit, too.

Why am I transfering binaries between these systems, you query?
I'm cross-compiling for a Series 32000-based target, and I have the
cross development tools on both hosts.  Sometimes the load on one machine
is just too heavy, so I want to transfer some of the work to the other machine.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
