Z88Transfer 3.1 (Default branch)
ImageZ88Transfer is a transfer utility written withPython and PyGTK that allows a Linux machine tosend and receive files from Z88 computers (createdin 1987 by Sir Clive Sinclair in his last computercompany, Cambridge Computers). Z88transfersupports IMP-EXPORT, EAZYLINK, and PCLINK-IIprotocols, and can convert automagically betweenAbiword/RTF format and PipeDream, Z88's nativeformat.License: GNU General Public License v3Changes:
This release allows you to copy files from the PC with upper case letters in the filename. It hides files ending in ~. It supports filenames with the '-' character, and has better detection of invalid filenames. It fixes a bug that prevented the transmission of binary files under Windows. It fixes a bug when the user cancels a transfer.Image

NAME

       rz - receive a file using the zmodem protocol

SYNOPSIS

       rz [-abepqvy] [-t timeout]

OPTIONS

       -a     CP/M to UNIX conventions

       -b     Binary file

       -e     Escape for all control characters

       -p     Protect file if it already exists

       -q     Quiet; opposite of verbose

       -t     Set timeout in tenths of a second

       -v     Verbose; opposite of quiet

       -y     Yes, clobber existing files

EXAMPLES

       rz </dev/tty01 >/dev/tty01
			   # Receive a file

DESCRIPTION

       The  XMODEM,  YMODEM,  and  ZMODEM family of file transfer programs are widely used on personal computers.  MINIX supports ZMODEM, the most
       advanced of the set.  The programs sz and rz are used for sending and receiving, respectively.

       Rz and sz are programs that uses an error correcting protocol to transfer files over a dial-in serial port from a variety of programs  run-
       ning  under  various  operating systems.  Rz (Receive ZMODEM) receives files with the ZMODEM batch protocol.  Pathnames are supplied by the
       sending program, and directories are made if necessary (and possible).  The meanings of the available options are:
       -a
	 Convert files to UNIX conventions by stripping carriage returns and all characters beginning with the first Control Z (CP/M end of file).
       -b
	 Binary (tell it like it is) file transfer override.
       -c
	 Request 16 bit CRC.  XMODEM file transfers default to 8 bit checksum.	YMODEM and ZMODEM normally use 16 bit CRC.
       -D
	 Output file data to /dev/null; for testing.
       -e
	 Force sender to escape all control characters; normally XON, XOFF, DLE, CR-@-CR, and Ctrl-X are escaped.
       -p
	 Protect: skip file if destination file exists.
       -q
	 Quiet suppresses verbosity.
       -t
	 Change timeout tenths of seconds (timeout follows flag).
       -v
	 Verbose causes a list of file names to be appended to /tmp/rzlog.  More v's generate more output.
       -y
	 Yes, clobber any existing files with the same name.
