347.0. "HELP FOR NEW USER" by BALZAC::DAKONO () Mon Dec 19 1988 11:21

    
    
    
    
    		Hi folks
    
    		I need help on ATARI and Enet.
    
    		I am new ATARI ST user ,I have copied WHACK.ARC on my
    		DIGITAL directory,i have kermit on my mVAX and on my
    		ST1024 and i can transfer text file between the two
    		computers.
    
    		How can i transfer WHACK.ARC with kermit (binary mode
    		or normal mode......)?,and how can i get WHACK.PRG from
    		WHACK.ARC (should i operate the separation on the VAX
    		OR ON THE ATARI AND with wich tools).
    
    
    		Thanks in advance

    I suggest reading note 52 and all it's replies (which explains
    transfering files and de-arcing). Then if you still have questions
    ask away.
    
    It's best to de-arc ("setperate") .ARC files on the ST. ARC files
    are compressed (usualy about 10-50%) so it makes the download with
    Kermit much shorter. Arc (or VmsSweep) on the Vax is usefull to
    look at .ARC files to see if they are of interst to you before
    downloading.
