[Coco] Xmodem, Ymodem

[George Ramsower]

I'm curious why Ymodem won't work between this PC XP-Pro SP2 and my coco 
OS9-L2

Xmodem works, but places stuff at the end to fill in the last 100 bytes(I 
assume)
I can't get Ymodem or Zmodem to work at all. So, what I do is just edit out 
the extra crud that xmodem adds and the end and go from there.

I don't use a terminal program on the coco. I simply do "shell i=/t2&" from 
the coco in the startup file and use Hyperterminal on this PC to do my work.
Well, actually right now, I'm using /T3 on the coco because I lost a driver 
or reciever on the coco on the /t2 port. I need to fix that. This happens 
about once a year.

I run it at 9600 baud, 8n1, using using all the handshaking lines such as 
RTS, CTS and RD

The Xmodem and Ymodem routines I have came from the OS9-L2 BBS system I 
bought about a thousand years ago.

 This has been a problem since day one. I read on this list that another 
person(I can't remember who) said he couldn't get Ymodem (or maybe Zmodem) 
to work either.

 Suggestions?
