	As I found out last week, all files on Simtel are stored in 36bit
format, and require the TENEX binary transfer format to be set.  So just
type tenex before getting the files, and they should come out ok.  There is
also a program posted to comp.sources.misc (I think) that will translate a
tenex format file to a normal file on unix.
