Hello!  I would like to know how to transfer binary files between Suns and
Cray under UNICOS without intermediate ASCII files.  If you know how to do
this or some information on this matter, please let me know.

Use RPC and XDR.  Not the most easy way to do it, but at least byte
ordering is taken care of for you by the XDR libraries.
