If you want to use Zmodem (or "ZMoDem," if you insist) file
transfers from within MS-DOS Kermit, there are three ways you can
go about it:
1. You can demand that the Kermit developers add about 50K of new
code to implement a protocol that (apparently) very few people
need in their Kermit software.
2. You can get DSZ from Omen Technology, register it for about
$20, and write a couple of Kermit macros (see below) that will
cause Kermit to call DSZ and send or receive files.
3. You can get the source code and add it yourself.
I have found that the second solution works a lot better than the
first. I haven't had time to try the third yet.
define RZ run dsz port 1 d rz -y,connect
define SZ ask FILENAME ZMODEM transmit file?,-
run dsz port 1 d sz \m(FILENAME),connect
set key \316 {\KRZ} ; F2 = ZMODEM receive
set key \323 {\KSZ} ; F9 = ZMODEM send
