Ok, I've been quietly collecting things from comp.binaries.mac which
I'd like to have on my mac and now I'd like to get them all there.
What tools do I need to find in order to do this?  My UNIX machine is
an SGI IRIS 4D/60T running V.3 with 4.3 networking, my mac is a II.  I
could get a serial cable and connect the mac to the IRIS, but then what
software do I run on each side?

I can get an ethernet card for the mac (loaner, not pay the $1000) and
maybe get the NCSA FTP to xfer files, would that be easier ??

Please mail responses to me and I'll summarize to the net
(if anyone cares about the summary)

Thanks in advace,
