14.4.11. How can I do file transfers with tip?

If you are talking to another UNIX system, you can send and receive files with ~p (put) and ~t (take). These commands run ``cat'' and ``echo'' on the remote system to accept and send files. The syntax is:

            ~p <local-file> [<remote-file>]
            ~t <remote-file> [<local-file>]
          

There is no error checking, so you probably should use another protocol, like zmodem.
