I've modified macput and macget to work under 4.1. There are two changes:

#include becomes #include

rename(a, b); becomes link(a,b);
unlink(a);

Thanks to Ron Wessels of U. of T. for these changes, and many thanks to the
original poster of the program for the original code. The 4.1 versions have
not been extensively tested, but the changes are simple enough that they should
work (famous last words).
