minicom: wrong connection with Z modem

It seems to step into problems in fast connections, e.g. on ISDN.

Philipp Pallo (ppallo@zeus-hh.org) writes about it:

Concerning the spoken problem of a X.75 connection on the modem emulator. I had the problem but in the meantime I have been able to avoid it. I have changed my configuration in minicom as follows :

Options, File transfer protocols:

Program  :    /usr/bin/sz -vv          ->   /usr/bin/sz.scr -vv %l
Fullscr  :    N                        ->   Y
IO-Red.  :    Y                        ->   N
The shellscript /usr/bin/sz.scr looks like as follows:
#!/bin/sh
ls -l $3
sz $1 $3 <>$2
echo ""
echo Please push [RETURN] !
read choice
I assume that later on, the fast status messages of sz lead into an overflow in the minicom window. Because the complete messages are now to be seen on the full screen and the shell takes care about this, everything runs (nicerly) again !

Finally, everything is O.K. again.
