The program below may help solve the problem of transferring binary
files from SIMTEL20 to VAX/VMS hosts.

Filename			Type	 Bytes	 CRC

Directory PD1:<MISC.VAXVMS>
BINTNXVMS.C.1			ASCII	 10823  23F1H
BINTNXVMS.README.1		ASCII	   336  1D2EH

Here is the readme file:

BINTNXVMS.C is for use on VAX/VMS systems to convert a TOPS-20 file
transferred in FTP "binary" mode to "tenex" mode.  In "binary" mode,
we have 2 36-bit words in 9 8-bit bytes.  In "tenex" mode, we want the
top 32 bits of each 36-bit group, giving 8 8-bit bytes.  See the notes
in BINTNXVMS.C for instructions on command options.
