To Rhonda, What you are looking for in terms of mex binary file transfers: after asking the bbs to send you the file, exit back to the command line (usually done with a <ctrl>j e) and then type r filename.typ. YOur computer will then start saying it is receiving a file like kermit does. when it is done, then type t and you will be talking with the bbs again. The help files you are looking for are on simtel20 and they are PD2:<CPM.MEX> MEX-EASY.DZC AND MEXSTEPS.TQT. And don't feel bad. I cut my teeth on computer comm with bbs systems, but I was totally lost when I started on ftp and kermit about 5 months ago.
