The 'work around' that I use to make bulk downloads from my unix machine to my micro is to use MEX in the 'read' mode. Goes something like this: 1. use mget for the simtel20 batch 2. copy a directory listing down to the micro 3. while holding the line open, drop to a text editor on the micro. delete the junk at the start and end of the file with the directory in it change all lines from 'filename' to 'sendout "umodem -sbl filename";r filename save it 4. go back into mex and give the command 'read filelist' where filelist has the modified file directory 5. watch it go Lots of capability with a read file - once I downloaded 50 files with one command. bob bloom
