No, transfering a whole file is a single stream of stuff; reading individual

significantly simpler if you only support Sequential files.  Simpler still if 
you limit it to just two cases: fixed:512, and stream.

Alas, that means most text files on VMS won’t be transferred since they are 
record based.

Same story with RSX, and even more so. And not just text files.

Can you get EDT or TPU to emit stream files?

Not in RSX, you can't...
