[comp.sources.wanted] looking for cu that works with rz

brian@apt.UUCP (Brian Litzinger) (10/13/89)

I'm looking for a program like 'cu' that operates correctly
with 'rz' (the xmodem/ymodem/zmodem transfer program).

I would like to be running cu, tell the remote host to xmodem
something, then enter something like "~!rx filename" and have
it work correctly.

I've heard that some cu's can handle this correctly, while other's
don't.  Mine doesn't.  I need a function in cu like "~$" which
runs a command locally with its output directed to the remote system,
but also takes it's input from the remote system.

I've considered pcomm but it is so involved.  I'd like to stick with
a cu like interface.

I'm running System V.3.2 on a 386 machine.

Any help would be appreciated.
