Greetings all:

You can actually use mpack tools to upload pictures, document files (like OOo 
or Word), or even to add a bunch of files in compressed format.  In the old 
days, when the first scanners came down in price, I could scan and send 
pictures to my friends that lived in the sticks where there were no phone 
lines, power etc.

I think the mpack tools are still available for Gnu and DOS users.  Anyway, I 
set up my station with extra information regarding this function and users 
did actually use the tools that I would maintain in my /pub directory.
