[04] HOW DO I UPLOAD AND DOWNLOAD FROM THIS SYSTEM?
You can use the sx, sb and sz (XMODEM, YMODEM and ZMODEM) for
downloading and rx, rb and rz (XMODEM, YMODEM and ZMODEM) for
uploading.
You can download files by saving them into your home directory
from your mail or newsreader, and then running them through whatever
conversion programs are necessary to convert them to their original
form (as discussed in #10 above). Then you can download them using
"sz" (Zmodem - recommended), "sb" (Ymodem batch), "sx" (Xmodem), or
"kermit" (Kermit). There are help files on all of this stuff posted
regularly to the respective newsgroups. Particularly helpful is the
"How to find sources" posting in alt.sources.wanted. Some of the
newsgroups that distribute sources and binaries are alt.sources,
comp.sources.misc, comp.binaries.ibm.pc, alt.binaries.pictures.misc,
and there are many others.
