Receive binary options (i5/OS and OS/400)

Options include:

CRLF
Carriage Return and Line Feed. CRLF (x'0D0A') is added at the end of each record.


APPEND
The transferred file is appended to an existing PC file that has the same name, if one exists. If APPEND is not specified, the transferred file overwrites the existing host file. Also, if APPEND is specified, EOF is removed from the end of an existing file.


NEW
The transfer stops if the file already exists. This option can be used to protect against accidentally erasing an existing file.


DSTADDR(dstaddr)
This option specifies the destination address of the host to be used for the file transfer.


USERID(usr)
This option specifies the user ID to be used for the file transfer.


PASSWORD(pwd)
This option specifies the password to be used for the file transfer.
