While people seem to be talking quite a bit about better methods of 
file transmission, and the different protocols, I though I would ask
a (beginner's) question ---  which protocol is fastest?  That is, if
all I'm doing is simple standard uploading of BinHex'ed files, can (or
should) I use any protocol other than 'text' ?   Is Xmodem faster?

thanks in advance...
