[comp.sys.mac.comm] Zmodem docs??

6600dayl@ucsbuxa.ucsb.edu (Darryl "NOT Sara" Lee) (05/07/91)

hey y'all....

can you help a relative unix neophyte?  i've been asking around about
a 7-bit version of zmodem, and i hear that it's available for license
only from Omen Technologies...

one person (who shall remain unnamed) even told me the file that the
information is in DSZ.ZIP, a documentation file for the 1990 version
of zmodem.

but the obstinate guy won't tell me where the heck it is!!  "Yeah,
it's on an FTP site, but do your homework..."

i've TRIED sumex-aim, i've TRIED umich, i'm not THAT familiar with
ftp-land.  Sheesh...whatta snob.

i KNOW y'all aren't so mean and petty.  can somebody point me in the
right direction?  and remember, you can't be too specific for me...

thanx much...				Darryl Lee

	I also am looking for information on zmodem, one kind
individual offered me some help but I have not been successful
returning mail to him.  So: if anyone has access to this
documentation or can let me know which site it's at please send me
the address/information.  And to answer the person who responded to
me, I can deal with DOS formatted files.

	Thank You,

archie is extremely useful for answerinh these sorts of queries

archie:
#! /bin/csh
# A little one-line script to call up archie, get the list of all files specified
# by the regular expression which is the first argument, sort these files by age
# and display them
echo "prog $1" | rsh quiche.cs.mcgill.ca -l archie "" | nawk -f ~dcoster/bin/archie.prog - | sort +2nr -3 +0Mr -1 +1nr -2

archie.prog:
/Host/ {host = $2}
/Last/ {cury=$6}
/Location:/ { dir = $2 } 
/FILE/||/DIRECTORY/ { if (index($6,":")) year = cury; else year = $6; printf "%3s %2s %4s %7s /%s:/%s/%s\n",$4,$5,year,$3,host,dir,$7 }
{ next }
