[comp.sources.wanted] X,Y,Z modem for UNIX Sys V

paul@deadpup.UUCP (paul) (12/04/89)

I'm looking for a pointer to an X,Y, and/or Z modem communications package
(perhaps simular in format to Kermit), for a UNIX Sys V r3 system. I'll
readily admit that I'm not at all familiar with these, but the MSDOS
people want to get data from our just and rightous UNIX machines :-) and
are finding kermit "too slow." I'ld rather that they look for a uucp-like
implementation (In fact, a pointer to something like that would be
appreciated as well.), but enough griping. If someone could direct me
to an archive where I could ftp such a package or packages, or could
indicate where I might get mailed a copy from, I would be very grateful.

Thanks in Advance,
Paul J. Mech

Didn't this come up just last week? Anyways, you can find it in one of
the MISC or UNIX-C directories on simtel20.arpa (26.0.0.74); probably
pd2:<unix-c.zmodem> or pd2:<misc.zmodem>... Or you can find it in one
of the comp.sources.unix archives in volume 12; try uunet.uu.net. I
have a feeling that the simtel20 version will be more uptodate though.

Thanks to all who responded to my request for a pointer. In addition
to the pointer to comp.unix.sources that was posted here, I got
three copies by mail (!).
