I am posting a reply to this because this information may be of general use
(it sure was for me)

There is a excellent article summarizing several different communications
protocols in common use, including the ones memtioned above and a few more
including UUCP in the July-August 1989 issue of "Programmer's Journal"
This issue may still be on the newstands.

Chuck Fosberg has posted a general use program, with sources, I believe,
in the past.  I think is was DSZ or RZRB.  (Chuck is to commended for his
contributions in this area.)
