Apparently my problems with macget were caused because our Front End was
not designed to handle continuous input. If a dialup line overloads it,
it resets the host connection and hangs up the phone line. Even during
the middle of a Sunday night, it is necessary to use 300 baud in order to
upload moderately long (~20K) files successfully using macget. Oh well...

Sorry if I caused anyone to go looking for bugs in MacTerminal with my
earlier post. At that time, I was only thinking about the Mac and the Vax,
and not the Front End connection between the Mac and the Vax. . .
