I have a few questions concerning Zmodem (SZ):

1.  How do you force SZ to send a file as Xmodem/Ymodem/Ymodem Batch?  I 
    tried renaming the file to SX and then passing the filename to be 
    sent as the only parameter.  This didn't work.

2.  Is there a way to force Xmodem and Ymodem transfers to use 16-Bit CRC 
    error checking instead of 32-Bit CRC error checking.  For a Zmodem 
    transfer, you can pass "-o" to accomplish this, but I haven't had any 
    luck with Xmodem/Ymodem/Ymodem Batch.

If anyone can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it.  Zmodem is a 
great protocol, but it isn't the easiest thing to work with.  If anyone 
could point me to the documentation for RZ/SZ, that would also be 
appreciated.
