While I don't have an ST, you may want to check what the value of a
carriage return is on the ST, then use the UNIX 'tr' command to translate
a UNIX CR ('^J' or 012 octal) to the ST CR (lets say it's '^M' or 015 octal).
So on UNIX issue the command:

	tr "\012" "\015" <Unix_file >ST_file

this will change the '^J' to '^M' in the Unix_file and put the result in the
ST_file, which can then be downloaded.  This is what I do to download UNIX
files to my Atari 8-bitter (CR=233 octal).
