I'm currently running linux .95.  Several times now, I've FTP'd
something, tar'd it to floppy, and then untar'd from linux,
and tried to execute what I've untar'd.  I get the message,
"Cannot execute binary file"  The directory listing for the file
says that it's executable, and it's docs say it's executable.
I'm sure it's something simple that I'm missing.  Can anyone help?

Thanks
Mark
