Go to your authorized Apple dealer with your master diskette for MacTerminal
and ask for an upgrade.  It will probably be free, though this will vary
from dealer to dealer.

Under MacTerminal 2.x, the procedure for using macput is as follows:

1.  put MacTerminal into 'MacTerminal 1.1' file transfer mode
2.  use xbin to create the .data, .rsrc, and .info files.
3.  type 'macput file'.  
4.  voila.
