From what I've read here, seems that WK is looking for the wrong things.
The 'rz' should not be used as part of the trigger.  This is just 
something that the sending program may send as a convenience (eg, when
connected to a unix system, to start the rz program).  Also, there is
a control char between the ** and the B.  Since norm's message triggered 
WK, it doesnt seem to care if that control char is there or not.
