I was browsing through the Apple II areas on tybalt earlier when I
stumbled across the oft-rumored AGATE 0.69.  I grabbed the file,
downloaded it, and guess what?  It really does do ZMODEM downloads
with file recovery!  (I grabbed a sound file from a local Mac BBS,
just to check the file recovery...still need to unpack it, but the
file length looks right, and I did break the transfer in the middle
just to see if file recovery would work.)  Not only does AGATE do
ZMODEM, but it can also undo .ZIP files, too!  I've never seen an
unZIP program for 8-bit Apple IIs anywhere!

If I remember right, you should look in pub/apple2/uploads on
tybalt.caltech.edu to get the file; if it's not in uploads, try util
instead.  Look for "agate069.bsq."
