A different question is how to deal with binary file transfers to (for example) Unix systems. I have some different options there as well, but I haven't figured one out yet that does the right thing under all circumstances.


How about writing an archiver that produces a simple binary file as output but retains all the RSX specific stuff within the archive, sort of like ZIP's -V   option on VMS and then using something like Kermit over say Telnet to transfer those files around?

I'm sure there must be a Kermit port for RSX-11 out there somewhere..
