when you've got the data as you want it, the command is   f    (for
'file'). You will then be prompted for filename and citation length. To
retrieve your file, you need to use ftp, get into your account, and use
the command    get filename     (where 'filename' is the name you gave
the file. If you can't remember the name, type   ls   which will list
all the files you have in your account. Try to get hold of the reference
document from the Cobuild website - it's got all the info you're ever
likely to need.
