I just do it by shelling out to DOS...

Interesting...  I can use Zmodem to download anything from a telnet bbs,
but nothing* but kermit has worked for uploads.  I keep hoping that
someone has figured out a way for Zmodem to work for telnet uploads when
strictly in DOS, but it doesn't appear that that will be the case...

Thanks... :)
