zmodem port?

zmodem port?

[Scott Evans]

Has anyone successfully ported sz/rz to Cygwin?

I asked about this a few years ago and got no responses but I still
haven't had time to look into it myself... maybe someone else has?

Hey now!  Cool.

The omen.com version indeed works, though its rz exits a bit strangely.
I didn't know about zssh (neat idea), but their ssh is from the lrzsz
project; that's the one that I have built in the past.  Its rz doesn't
seem to work quite right.

Anyway, thanks for the diff -- I'll try the omen version for a while
and see how I do.

I searched earlier posts, and it is clear that it had been
done. So I tried grabbing rzsz.sip from www.omen.com and
building it. No problem. Just modify the makefile to add
.exe to the executable names when calling ln. I attached
the "diff -c" output so you can patch it. This adds a new
"cygwin" target.

Actually, testing it was more complicated than I expected.
In the end, I set up sshd and used zssh (downloaded from
sourceforge). In fact, zssh comes with another flavor of
rz/sz that builds just fine via ./configure && make.
