subject: re: undefined symbol _Rxframeind & _Rxtype

That's what I thought but I checked all the header & include files in
Watcom and Maximus source. There were undeclared "Rxframeind"
& "Rxtype" (ie. without the "_" prefix) which I
fixed, but now it's complaining about _Rxframeind and _Rxtype (ie. with
"_" prefix) and I have no idea where it got those prefixes from
... my best guess is a constructor somewhere generated them ...

Maybe I should just axe it out of the source and compile Maximus without
the internal Zmodem.

I'm waiting for a reply from Bo Simonsen.

I took a look at some of the Watcom linker's .map and .err files but they
didn't give me any useful details.
