Subject: cpm information

to matthew zank and mr neubauer:
   you can ftp to SIMTEL20.arpa through your unix machines and do
  a "cd" to directory "PD1:<CPM>" then do a "dir" to get the current
  file names for the indexs to all the cpmug. i think the current file
  is named "PD1:<cpm>files.idx", you will have to do a "get" to bring
  it back to your unix system. this file will show you which files are
  ascii and which are binary. before doing a get on a binary file you
  must enter "type tenex" and if switching back "type ascii" for ascii
  files. after you have the files you want in your unix account you 
  can use (i do) "umodem -s?" where ?=b for binary and t for ascii
  to send them to your cpm machine. i use xmodem on my heath h89.
  if you have any more questions feel freee to send me email.
