[comp.sys.amiga.tech] How to get binaries

olch@geocub.greco-prog.fr (Olivier Charrier) (01/17/90)

  Sorry, this has surely been asked before but I couldn't find out where.
I can ftp binaries in my home directory, and then uuencode them so that
kermit (MS-Kermit, that is, since C-Kermit allows 8 bits transmission)
doesn't get confused. But how can I uudecode it back on my Amiga (or on
IBM, since it is the primary reception machine)?

  I heard about something called compress. Where can I find it? Is there
any other utility doing this stuff?

  Thank you.
