Simple! First off, your IBM can't read the disks that your GS writes
(incompatible hardware). So, you'll need to do a serial transfer of the
ASCII files.
This can be accomplished one of several ways.
(a) you can use modems on each end and connect directly using Ma Bell to
get the files from one side to the other.
(b) you can connect the two directly via a null modem cable (has two pins
reversed (2 and 3, I think))
(c) you can upload them to a friendly BBS (maybe one with your own
file/storage area, like many ProLine sysops provide) and then download
them with your IBM.
Good luck!
