- I use the rzsz package to transfer files between a RS/6000 530 and a
- pc running procomm+. On the unix machine, failure to specify the -e
- option has resulted in the problem you describe. The man page states:
- e Force a ZMODEM sender to escape all control characters;
- normally only XON, XOFF, DLE, CR-@-CR, and Ctrl-X are
- escaped.
