Click on file receive does not work. To download files in Terminal you need to do two things. First, you need to tell Terminal what protocol to use. This is done by clicking Settings. Then click Binary Transfers... (use Text Transfers... for downloading ASCII). Then choose Kermit (since Xmodem/CRC is the default). Second, when you are ready to download the file click Transfer, click Receive Binary File, and answer the appropriate questions. What is happening to you now is that Terminal is trying to receive the file using Xmodem protocol. ----------- Mike Lipsie mikel@pyramid.com Pyramid Technology Corp, Mountain View, CA +1 415 335 8657 "Toto kansasoseum non est cognito" -- Phil Frank
