The program below may help solve the problem of transferring binary files from SIMTEL20 to VAX/VMS hosts. Filename Type Bytes CRC Directory PD1:<MISC.VAXVMS> BINTNXVMS.C.1 ASCII 10823 23F1H BINTNXVMS.README.1 ASCII 336 1D2EH Here is the readme file: BINTNXVMS.C is for use on VAX/VMS systems to convert a TOPS-20 file transferred in FTP "binary" mode to "tenex" mode. In "binary" mode, we have 2 36-bit words in 9 8-bit bytes. In "tenex" mode, we want the top 32 bits of each 36-bit group, giving 8 8-bit bytes. See the notes in BINTNXVMS.C for instructions on command options. --Keith
