Could someone give a brief description about what these "updates"
actually are? I use the version from April 1988.

Does anyone have an nroff-able man page for this latest release? I noticed
that it only comes with a preformatted man page.

I don't have access to ftp - could someone post the phone number of Chuck Foresburgs BBS - I would like a new copy of rzsz.

I use the version from April 1988. : If your current system works, I don't know any real reason to update. I speak from a heavy Unix <--> PC file transfer experience. This is simple logic, not any adverse relection on the product (it's a good one, alright). ...................................................................

Troff source for the man pages will be included on the registration diskette
mailed to paid rz/sz registrants.

They are supported whan passed from the sending program.
The new Rz also supports Crash Recovery.

According to one of the people at my site who uses rx for transferring files to our Unix box fairly often: >The "sending program" usually does NOT have a -a option, since the sending >program is usually a standard PC software, with standard xmodem transfers. >The Unix end should be able to do it, even if the PC end is not using >Forsberg's program. So, if it's true that there are some sending programs that do not know how to specify -a, -b and -y when sending, then shouldn't the flags have been left in the receiving programs? And, if not, then how does my user get around the problem that his xmodem sending program doesn't know how to automatically tell the receiver to do the -a, -b, -y conversions, and there's no way to manually tell the receiver to do the conversions? -- Jonathan Kamens USnail: MIT Project Athena 11 Ashford Terrace jik@Athena.MIT.EDU Allston, MA 02134 Office: 617-253-8085 Home: 617-782-0710

-Does this version works in combination with TELIX ? The previous version
-did not.
Easy. Just shell out to DSZ for the transfers.
