I have some trouble of transfering GIF files to unix. I use ftp to get the files. The problem is that after transfering these files to unix, the display program on unix would not be able to read them. What can I do?

Use the BINARY command in ftp before transfering. I use it, between GIFConverter (Mac) and xloadimage (sun), it works well. Hope this helps.

And check on unix side that, file is binary or not. When you do unix to mac, use asci transfer ftp. If you got mac x, then use xloadimage command. Siri Hewa.
