btw there's also a patched version the linux people use that has that
/dev/tty nonsense thrown out, if someone wants it i can dig it out.
(now the only thing you need is fast tty reads and writes, then it
would fly...)

well i don't think you could run a zmodem over GEMDOS AUX: anyway,
i haven't yet seen a TOS version where the GEMDOS tty stuff isn't
hopelessly broken. (first problem: how would you put it in RAW mode? :-)
use MiNT and forget TOS...
