                     26: .I Macput
                     27: sends a file to a Macintosh running MacTerminal.
                     28: The File Transfer settings should specify the "Modem7"
                     29: transfer method and a "MacTerminal" remote system.
                     30: This program is designed for use with the 0.5 Beta and newer
                     31: versions of MacTerminal, but includes a compatibility option for the
                     32: older -0.15X Almost-Alpha version.
                     33: .PP
                     34: To use this program, log into the unix system using MacTerminal,
                     35: and run macput specifying the desired options and one file to be sent.
                     36: If MacTerminal is properly configured, it will recognize that a file
                     37: is arriving on the serial line and put up an indicator showing how
                     38: much of the file has been sent.
                     39: Several Control-X's may be used to force macput
                     40: to give up if the transfer fails.
                     41: .PP
                     42: If none of the
                     43: .B \-rdu
                     44: flags are specified, 
                     45: .I macput 
                     46: sends three files to the mac:
                     47: .IB file .info ,
                     48: .IB file .data ,
                     49: and
                     50: .IB file .rsrc .
                     51: This is useful for returning files to the mac which were stored
                     52: using macget.
                     53: .PP

                     62: .I file
                     63: will be sent to the Mac, along with a forged
                     64: .B .info
                     65: file and an empty 
                     66: .B .data
                     67: file.
                     68: The file sent becomes the resource fork of the Mac file.

                     85: file.
                     86: The file sent becomes the data fork of the Mac file.

                     93: .I data
                     94: mode except unix newline characters are converted
                     95: into carriage returns.
                     96: Human-readable unix text files sent to the Mac using this option 
                     97: will be compatible with applications which expect "text only" files.

                    103: perform file transfer; this is done automatically in the newer versions.
                    104: .PP
                    105: The remaining options serve to override the default
                    106: file type, author, and file name to be used on the Mac.
                    107: The default type and author for
