Zmodem problems...

Open martykazmaier opened this issue 10 months ago • 3 comments

When uploading via pdsz in my message areas, for posting a message the zmodem transfer isn't automatically started, and when I hit alt-pgup and zmodem, it still doesn't start.

Let's see if I can explain this.... If The first file is 13 MB and the second files is 59 MB, the download after the first file is complete shows 13MB of the second file downloaded, and the % according to that. After it goes past 100%, it goes to 72MB before completing, which is correct but looks really weird.

Y I need to work on that dialog - it's basically crap :/.

ATM I'm on polishing icy draw - it's a good tool but really needs maintainance. IcyTerm will see some love after that :).

Just to add to this, I have Zmodem 8K, Ymodem-G and Sexyz Zmodem on my board. The downloads work fine with NetRunner, SyncTerm and fTelnet (Ymodem-G).

However one user reported that only Zmodem 8K worked and the others didnt in IcyTerm.

Board is bbs.theforze.eu if you need to test.

Yes, Zmodem 8K works, but isn't supported by my 16 bit fossil protocols. Z-Modem through PDZ and CEXYZ with fossil don't start. Sexyz's 8k Zmodem does work, but isn't supported by my dos apps.

https://github.com/mkrueger/icy_tools/releases/tag/PreRelease0.7.99 should fix that.
