I am not sure what file transfer protocol was used in the transfer, but you 
might want to ensure that the protocol has the ability to transmit binary
files.  Some protocols which properly accommodate binary files and the command
which sets binary mode:
	1. ftp / binary
	2. kermit / set file type binary
	3. [xyz]modem / use the -rb or -sb flag for receive/send binary

The [xyz]modem program I am familiar with is rx, ry, and rz, respectively.

Also, please post the location, phone number, and/or ftp address of the PD
Modula-2 compiler.  It might come in handy for a course I am instructing this
fall on programming languages and translation.
