In what is now remembered as the neo-classical "Apple II rules, who cares
about the rest of the world" attitude embraced by the Apple II pirating 
community, Greg Schaeffer made the "Ymodem" protocol in Proterm and the
original GBBS Xfer different from the accepted standard (which has, in fact,
been the standard for at least 4 years- plenty of time to rework Proterm
to conform).

In any event, in my never-ending quest to complete the Telcom Program of the
Gods, I need to find any information on the format of GBBS/Proterm Ymodem.
Andy Nicholas, if you're listening,  I know you wrote SuperTac- do you have
info on this?

Any information will be appreciated, and rewarded with a free Tinaja Quest for
Two...
