Cisco boxes get quite upset at control-^, for example. Unfortunately, ProTERM's Zmodem apparently does not support control character quoting. This is from my own use of trying to upload several ASCII files. It would send the filename and hang. Switching to non-quoted worked some but not all the time... some files I ended up having to ASCII Send. The boxes here are susceptable to control-S and control-Q as well. Plays havoc with transfers. >Bruce Howells, beh@pogo.ai.mit.edu (formerly beh@bu.edu) > ** do not use R or auto-reply unless you like bounce-mail... Yeah, with an address like beh@.mit.edu, that is to be expected. However, the term "rubber-mail" flows much better, or bounced mail. -- /// ____ \\\ greg@ /"Share and Enjoy." "Share and Enjoy."
