| Could a helpful soul show me what I am doing wrong in requesting
| files?  Note that I have tried upper and then lower case.  This is
| the lower case attempt:
| 
|      send binaries/volume1/idle12
|      send binaries/volume2/arc521b
|      send binaries/volume2/monofont
|      send binaries/volume2/timecode
| 
| 
| I get back the following error report:
| 
| The SSYX archive server has received your request.
| The server could not find in your message the name of anything to send.
| If you need instructions, send the server a message saying "help"
| ----------

Try this, I think it will solve your problem:

send binaries/volume1 idle12
                     ^
                     Note space instead of "/"

I did the same thing first time out!
