I'm trying to ftp the OzTeX files from tank.uchicago.edu.
I can get into the correct directory, and I can transfer
the README file. But when I try to get the other files,
I get "550 not a plain file" even if I first give the
command "binary" at the ftp prompt. Does anyone know
what the trouble is? Should I be setting some parameter
or protocol in ftp? Thanks for any help.
