Er, em, what? In my entire short-but-computer-filled-life, I've
always associated download/receive and upload/send. At least the
makers of Procomm agree with me: I use PgDn to download (receive)
files, and PgUp to upload (send) files.
Maybe the perspective is different if you're not on a PC, but on a
workstation. I wouldn't know. What do you mean by "datacomm" ?
