        !            11: .I Macget
        !            12: receives a file from a Macintosh running MacTerminal.
        !            13: The File Transfer settings should specify the "Modem7"
        !            14: transfer method and a "MacTerminal" remote system.
        !            15: This program is designed for use with the 0.5 Beta and newer
        !            16: versions of MacTerminal, but includes a compatibility option for the
        !            17: older -0.15X Almost-Alpha version.
        !            18: .PP
        !            19: To use this program, log into the unix system using MacTerminal,
        !            20: start macget with the desired options, select "Send File..." from
        !            21: the "File" menu, and open the file you wish to send.
        !            22: If MacTerminal is properly configured, it will put up an indicator
        !            23: showing how much of the file has been transfered.
        !            24: Several Control-X's may be used to force macget
        !            25: to give up if the transfer fails.
        !            26: .PP
        !            27: The optional 
        !            28: .I file
        !            29: parameter specifies the name to use when creating the unix files,
        !            30: otherwise the Mac file name is used
        !            31: (with spaces converted to underscores).

        !            39: .IB file .data ,
        !            40: and
        !            41: .IB file .rsrc .
        !            42: This mode is useful for storing Mac files so they can
        !            43: be restored later using
        !            44: .IR macput .
