I am having problems transferring large binary files to my Amiga
from a 4.2BSD UNIX Vax.  These files were pulled off the net in a 
uuencoded format, compressed, stored, uncompressed, and uudecoded. 
They were then xmodem'ed and/or kermited to the Amiga, which refused 
to believe that these were object files.

I have no problems transferring smaller files like Robotroff or Pearl,
but I can't seem to get med or GravityWars to work on the Amiga.  I DO
make sure that the files end in (hex)F2 by using tailrid to modify them
as necessary.

I am really puzzled and worried by this, since the juiciest programs are
usually the biggest ones.  I would really appreciate any help I can get.
Please email to me or post to the net as you see fit.
