For those of you having difficulty enabling the ZMODEM download protocol within WNQVT5.X, here are some suggestions. 1. Read all the files and documentation that came with the WNQVT program (Seriously, it helped me figure out the program substantially) 2. Copy all WNQVT terminal files to the Windows subdirectory 3. Edit the QVT.INI file. Specifically, specify the name of your download directory next to the download_dir command. 4. Edit the VT.INI file. Set your download protocol and enable auto-zmodem. 5. Now, when you go to download a file. Enter the download command and quickly hit the Transfer menu item, then hit the zmodem download. Another menu will pop up. Hit the OK button promptly and the download should be underway. I've found timing is critical for this operation. Essentially you want to get the ZMODEM protocol going before the host sends a "NACK" command Incidently, I've had success setting the download_dir command to C:\ - This has not given me any problems. If anyone has more questions, about the downloading process, respond and I'll try to make an educated guess to the problem

Do I here you right? Are you saying that you enable auto-zmodem
download detection and STILL have to do alt-T-d-z?

On winqvt, zmodem works fine except for one thing-- if it encounters an error, it almost never recovers, or at least has a very hard time.. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- swyatt@udel.edu !!! no disclaimer...I blame everything I say on someone else ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
