[comp.windows.ms] dsz, zmodem for Windows 3.0

galbrait@tramp.Colorado.EDU (GALBRAITH JOHN) (02/14/91)

In the Windows 3.0, it is really neat how one can use kermit in the 
background.  However,  has anyone out there ever figured out how or 
written a program to run other protocols in the background (or at all, for
that matter)?  I have tried to run dsz, but failed.  Even when run
exclusively, it hangs up the line.  Anyway, it would be nice to be able to
use some of the features of zmodem with the terminal program in Windows 3.0.
If anyone knows a way to do it, or knows why it can,t be done, please respond!
thanx....

   zmodem is available with WinQVT, which is available for 
download from many ftp/bbs sites.  it will run in the
background so you can do other fun stuff instead
of watching it...neat huh

Telix, and its built-in Zmodem, work fine in Enhanced mode.
