To Rhonda,
  What you are looking for in terms of mex binary file transfers:  after
asking the bbs to send you the file, exit back to the command line
(usually done with a <ctrl>j e) and then type r filename.typ.  YOur
computer will then start saying it is receiving a file like kermit does.
when it is done, then type t and you will be talking with the bbs again.
  The help files you are looking for are on simtel20 and they are
PD2:<CPM.MEX> MEX-EASY.DZC AND MEXSTEPS.TQT.  And don't feel bad.  I cut
my teeth on computer comm with bbs systems, but I was totally lost when
I started on ftp and kermit about 5 months ago.
