Hi Nancy!

In response to both of you, I'd just like to add this. I dunno where Chris 
thinks that sexyz does not work better than zmodem, for telnet. That may be 
his experience. I won't argue with what experience he's had. I do know 
however in my experience, I have seen where it makes an remarkable difference 
in both Speed and errors. In fact on large files it is not even close!

Not to mention Nancy, Old is nice when you are trying to defend it. Lord 
knows I have done that with Telegard and forgive me some of you fellas in 
here, Renegade too. But even yourself needed the wizard to create that file to 
help you with zmodem. I think you have seen where zmodem causes lots of 
troubles, which seems to have been alleviated by sexyz. IN fact I think the 
troubles with zmodem are some of the reasons why transfers, including

Again a problem with Age! If we could have them (Doors and bbs) updated they 
would be able to accept the use of other external prots and not just the ones

good points, but zmodem is a problem. It affects me greatly. And you know it 
affects me and stops me from using software I like to use. ;-)

Just a pennies worth from em also ;-)

Have a good One!
