I have a request.  How about an update of the 0.5 version at
atari.archive so that we can get it right away. (I use 0.5
all the time, It's great.  I should have sent mail.)  I
recompiled Zmodem source with gcc using a 64K buffer instead
of the dynamic one, and it runs great in the background
under gulam!

Joe
ps. Are we going to see a way to lie to process' about how
    much memory there is so that greedy programs can be
    forced to share? (Or did I miss a feature already in it?)
