Just a quickie question...
When FTP'ing files from another system, are thje files compressed using
Bincsii & SShrinkit?  I'm somewhat new to FTP'ing things, so if I ask some
really stupid questions, well, I'm sorry.  From what I can tell, the files
are transferred as either ascii or binary, which you get from the remote
system, then download to your pc and unpack...
To be honest, I haven't really tried this yet, (I was reading somewhere that
ftp's should be done during off-peak hours on the system you're ftp'ing to)
but I was going to attempt to get a couple of files soon and want to go about
it in the right way...
If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open... 
Thanks....
