Thank you for everyone who responded to my post about FTP, and has sent me a list. I was able to merge all the received files, and to actually try some. However I found myself with another problem. I can log into the FTP sites, and download file(s) to my machine, but how can I convert this file into something that my mac can understand? I was under the impression that all these file would be plain text, which I would then run thru BinHex, and stuffit to get the apps out. While that sounds just great, it apparently does not work that way. Suggestions? ...me
