I have a public domain software "Procomm". I use it to connect to Unix operating system. It works fine but somehow I don't know how to down-load or to up-load files. I press keys "alt-F10" to see a help menu. In the help menu, it says that I must press "Pgup" and "Pgdown" keys to either send or receive files. I follow the instruction but somehow I fail to succeed. Does anyone have any idea to do so ? I would appreciate very much if you give me some hints. Thanks again.

I'm not really sure what transfer protocols that the Unix you are connected
to supports. But, once you are ready to Up or Down load your program and
have pressed the PageUp or PageDown key, you should be presented with a
menu of protocol choices. Choice the one that matches what your Unix host is
using. (Kermit or wh(oops)
t
After you choose your protocol, you will be presented with a box that asks
you for the file name that you are downloading or uploading (you won't be
asked this with protocols that do this part for you). When you type in the
name you must include the subdirectory and drive specs, i.e.:
C:\upload\program.arc
Then let procomm do it's thing. That's really all there is to it. The hardest
part is making sure that both you and the host are "speaking the same language"
