In regards to several requests for zmodem software that runs on Unix
machines:  the file /pub/zmodem.tar.Z can be obtained by anonymous FTP to
rascal.ics.utexas.edu (128.83.144.1).  I am using this software on a Sun-3
and love it.  I recommend AZcomm on the Amiga end.  I typically get effective
transfer rates of 2200-2300 baud (may be I should quote characters per
second so as not to offend anyone :-) ) with this setup.  One word of caution,
some terminal servers might filter some of the protocol.  I can receive
zmodem but not send it when I go through one of the university ports, but
transfers work in both directions when I use a direct dial-up.

Also... the software also supports xmodem and ymodem with many options (1K
block transfer, CRC with xmodem)
