I would just like to say somthing in support of Chuck's rz/sz implementation.
I am using it on an 80486 UNIX V/386 3.2 system here and get wonderful
throughput the few times I have used it.  I have also tried the package 
over both V.32 and Telebit PEP.  Using it to talk with a Telebit PEP modem 
attached to a PC running with DSZ I can usually sustain 1400cps+ everytime
to the office and very rarely get a retry of any packets.  I can't think
of a package that works better with a PEP modem, so I would suspect as 
mentioned above by Chuck that flow-control causes a lot of users troubles.

Also Chuck if you see this (and I suspect you will), where can a user 
obtain the latest releases of sz/rz for UNIX.  You make mention of a 
version 3.11 in your message above, and I am sure many of the users here
on the net would like to upgrade to your current release...
