-
- When sending a file from a remote machine to the NeXT, use tip and type:
- sz file
- once you have logged on successfully to the remote machine. Then execute the
- tip command "~$" and at the Local Command? prompt type:
- rz -1
-
- The -1 parameter allows zmodem to work through tip, so you'll need to get the
- version of zmodem for the NeXT which supports this option. There were two
- different version of zmodem when I started using the NeXT, but only one works
- with tip. Just type:
- rz -h
- and you should see the following:
-
- rz 1.26 08-21-87 for V7/BSD by Chuck Forsberg
- Usage: rz [-1abeuv] (ZMODEM Batch)
- or rb [-1abuv] (YMODEM Batch)
- or rx [-1abcv] file (XMODEM or XMODEM-1k)
- -1 For cu(1): Use fd 1 for input
- -a ASCII transfer (strip CR)
- -b Binary transfer for all files
- -c Use 16 bit CRC (XMODEM)
- -e Ignore control characters (ZMODEM)
- -v Verbose more v's give more info
