Hello Folks!  I am using a Mac PLus with Microphone II to connect to a 
Xenix machine.  I read mail at my Xenix machine.  I frequently read news
and sometimes feels the need to download binaries in comp.binaries.mac.
The problem is that the only way I know how is to use the "open capture
file" option to capture a long file.  This is extremly slow and tedious.
I would like to know you all think would be the best way to download these
text files onto my harddisk.  I also have Versaterm, Terminal DA 1.5
and Red Ryder.  

I appreciate any comments or suggestion you may have.

Thanks again!
