Please forgive me for my ignorance, but would some kind net.hacker explain
a few things to me?  I bought a 520st several months ago and have been
using it mostly to help me with graduate work (i.e. word processing, charts,
graphs, etc.).  I have recently acquired a modem to use so I can dial-in
to the systems at work.  I am fairly baffled by all the talk on uuencode,
uudecode, shar files, sources vs. binaries, etc., and I feel like I am
missing out on some great software because I don't know how to down-load
the stuff to my machine.  Would someone please give me some definitions,
procedures, etc. or recommend some other source for this info?  Please
reply via e-mail.  Thanks in advance.
