Yeah, but I can't seem to find one that does what I need.  I need
one with a host mode so I can call my mac from someone else's PC
and get ascii files all by myself.  Right now (I have macterminal)
I need to coerce someone into doing the receiving while I do the sending,
or vice versa.  Simple file transfers should be possible from
one end only. If I am ranting for no good reason (ie you know of such
a program) then by all means tell me where to get one and I will
apologize and shut up and NEVER BOTHER YOU AGAIN OK?
