For things that I both want to deal with on z/OS as a "package" and on Windows 
as individual files, I just download them twice: once as individual members in 
ASCII and once as a TSO XMIT file.

Biggest negative I guess is that if you were to edit one member on Windows you 
would have to remember to upload it individually after any RECEIVE.

I tend to just use the ASCII members for reference: "How did I do that before?" 
I don't change them.

Or, package them with ...

for the entire content of a single PDS.

If you need them unpacked on Windows, CBTTAPE may have a utility for that.
