Ah, Deuce (Stephen Hurd) recently broke the auto-zmodem xfers. That's now fixed
(in version 0.7).

If you get version 0.7 (should be available on syncterm.bbsdev.net soon),
you'll have the option of specifying a log file (e.g. syncterm.log) where
zmodem transfer warnings and errors will be logged. If file transfer debugging
is enabled, you'll get tons of extra detail in the log as well.
