Alright I'm really fed up.  I've gotten over to the ftp sights and 
used the get command to transfer the files to my system. So far that
worked fine.  Then I tried to cat them to capture the text so I could
save them as a text file most of the time that works fine but all to 
often I keep getting a "bad crt file file is corrupt" or something of
that nature.  As for the files I downed from apple.com, I can't even cat
those the just come out in a royal mess.  Yes I know read the online 
documentation.   THE ONLINE DOCUMENTATION SUCKS. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE
someone tell me what I'm doing wrong ....It's late, I haven't had much sleep
There is a stupid fly bothering me, I have a massive headache, I hate hot
weather (incase you don't know the normal for this time of year is 20
and it reached a peak of 67 today yeeeech)
PLEASE PLEASE ANY INFORMATION WOULD BE GREATLY GREATLY GREATLY GREATY
APPRECIATED.
