FTP, binhex, and all this file transfer stuff. Could somebody please give me
explicit instructions on how to download a file from FTP or from a message and
then convert it to usable macintosh format?

I am dialing into a server with a modem, so the process must include a download
to my directory on the server, and then perhaps a kermit transfer via modem to
my powerbook.

I have received files, but they never seem to de-binhex correctly. I also have
an "lzh" file I cannot do anything with.

THanks!
