Basically, I've got a Python script that scrapes the rhesus.sampsa.com info's, adds any local customized help files to that, and FTPs it to RHESUS. Ok. But how do you pull the INFO.TXT files from other machines here? I can see that you can pull files out using ftp, and then process them on your Unix machine, and put the result back, but there are some DECnet operations in here... Johnny
