Message-ID: <16992@sri-arpa.UUCP> Date: Mon, 5-Mar-84 01:00:22 EST Article-I.D.: sri-arpa.16992 Posted: Mon Mar 5 01:00:22 1984 Date-Received: Fri, 2-Mar-84 15:37:12 EST Lines: 17 From: David RagozinSome time ago someone posted the following suggestion for FTP'ing ITS format files to get rid of thepadding bits in each 36-bit word: >quote (> is the FTP prompt) type "l 8" Entering these two lines seems to set things up properly on the UNIX system I work on, even though FTP does not have the TENEX mode (type?). There is still the need to eliminate the first 4 bytes using ITCVT (or using dd on a UNIX system). Hope this helps. David Ragozin - entropy!rag@uw-beaver
