     Use the Dumas UUX-Utility. It is a UNIX-compatibel uudecode/uuencode
     utility and it is PD.

     On UNIX-Systems, uucp or the kermit-protocol should be available.
     On the ST, there is kermit and uucp too. Both are available as PD.

     Maybe you should get a copy of UNITERM, the best terminal-emulator
     and file-transfer-program, i know. It does vt100, kermit, x-modem,
     y-modem, etc.
