[TUHS] Re: Stdin Redirect in Cu History/Alternatives?

On 10 Dec 2022 19:22 -0500, from clemc(a)ccc.com (Clem Cole): I remember at least sz/rz from my early (for me) forays into UNIX, back when ZModem was pretty much state of the art at least on micros and I had files locally that I wanted remotely or vice versa. The mnenomic being s(end)/r(eceive) z(modem); "send" and "receive", of course, being local to the remote host, so the opposite sense of what one would do with the terminal emulator program that one interacted with locally. So "sz <some file>" at the prompt, then activate the "receive ZModem transfer" function locally; or "rz <some file>", then activate the "send using ZModem" function locally. I think the host I was on at the time (which appears to have been some Solaris) also offered XModem and YModem variants as [rs][xy], but I never used those because someone had at some point told me that ZModem was better. :-) -- ✍  Michael Kjörling 🏡 https://michael.kjorling.se “Remember when, on the Internet, nobody cared that you were a dog?”
