Yeah, it does support downloading, but only Xmodem and YModem. Michael Brutman
did say he would consider adding the feature if enough people requested it but
I don't think anyone other than me has. Trouble is, many BBS's these day's only
 have Zmodem and/or URL download. Xmodem isn't available on many BBS's these
days.
