If you fill comfortable with POSIX, you have other ways to access the files
using standard commands like more, cat, cp, mv, etc...
e.g.:
MPE/iX: sh.hpbin.sys
shell/iX>cat /HPSPOOL/OUT/O<your file number> > /<your_
                       account>/<your_group>/<subdirectory>/new_file.txt

Now you can move the new_file.txt to the pc using ftp, samba, etc.
