Joe et al.,

	If one wishes to transfer binary files to the mainframe from
one's PC the usual procedure needs to be modified slightly.  The
following example using Kermit shows what to do on the mainframe end
(the procedure at the PC end remains unchanged).  See also HELP
FILE-TRANSFER on BIONET after the @ prompt.

@kermit
TOPS-20 KERMIT version 4.2(260)

Kermit-20>set file bytesize 8
Kermit-20>receive filename

Now one uses CTRL ] C to "escape" to the PC Kermit prompt and issue
the SEND FILENAME command, etc., as for text files.
