Probably the most popular comm. program among the BBS set lately is
Qmodem.  I hear that the latest version has Zmodem built in.
However.....
If you like the look and feel of Procomm, then the easiest transition
for you would probably be TELIX.  It is VERY similar in appearance,
operation and set-up to Procomm.  It has built in Zmodem with auto-start
on downloads.  The only minus (for me anyway) is the script language
which bears a striking resemblence to C.
Datastorm is planning a new release of Procomm Plus but won't venture
a guess as to WHEN.  They plan to have built in Zmodem support...RSN.
