You'll find source code on conexch for pcomm (a UNIX communications program
like the PC-DOS Procomm) and compress.  These will let you compress and
transmit your files to a PC.  You'll also find compress.exe available.

Just phone (714) 842-5851 and login as guest.  The first two programs
reside in /usr3/public, and the last in /bbs/guest/guest/tmp directories.
