I am running XENIX 2.3.3 on a 386DX clone and have been using
MultiTech 2400 and 9600 baud error correcting modems with V.42bis
data compression.

In the past, I have been using kermit for interactive sessions
and data transfer (text and binary). I would love to switch
to something faster and able to benefit from the V.42bis 
(kermit seems to keep timing out). I have heard of Ymodem-G
and others. Has any used a free (ftp site) or commercial
program they can recommend. Transferring binary executables
is the most important requirement. I would like to disable
the error correction because the modem is already providing
an error free line.
