Something odd is happening. When I uploaded that last message my term
program reported "File size 1247 & Bytes Xfer'ed 1280" (Completed
102%(!)) Further, when I tried to edit it, I was not able to replace
a word but got a message "? Unexpected character after end of
command." Mean anything to you?
XModem is worthless in todays world. It is a very old program that is
prone to error. It only handles files in 128 byte blocks, and if the
file isn't exactly that size, it adds junk (padding) to fill out the
last block.
That means that if you download an arachive from the libraries here on
CIS (like filename.LHA or .ARC, etc) they won't unpack properly
because junk has been added to the file by XModem!
