- tell zmodem to escape control chars - this burns some speed but should allow
- you to get downloads to work. If you're using sz, the option is -e.

- Also, if you still have probs it could be due to a lack of flow-control in
- the modem link you're dialling into, getting your school to fix it would be
- best, but a decent work-around is to force zmodem into doing an ack every k
- or so (with sz, that's -l 1024).
