Binary File Transfer

Set both sides (host and local computer) to binary mode (on most mainframes with <#3556#>set file type binary<#3556#> or <#3557#>set file binary<#3557#>, select the <#3707#>[Binary]<#3707#> button on UniTerm), if you have set parity to none and have selected 8 data bits, binary files will be transferred without 8th-bit prefixing; in all other cases prefixing will be used (be sure that the parity is the same on the complete connection to the remote computer). One note, since the Kermit ``end of record'' is the same as the TOS ``end of line'' no translation of <#3709#>CR<#3709#> 's or <#3710#>LF<#3710#> 's is done, this may lead to problems if you have a file on the ST which uses <#3711#>LF<#3711#> as ``end of line'' marker.
