@genominc @RetroGamer_offiziell Ja, logisch. 👍

#Ballerburg läuft immer noch unter #Hatari auf meiner #Linux-Büchse. 😏

Da hat das Backup Früchte getragen. Bevor ich meinen #AtariST endgültig eingemottet hatte, habe ich nämlich den gesamten Inhalt der #Megafile44 über #Zmodem auf die Linux-Maschine gezogen - hat trotz "Highspeed"-Verbindung ( 115.200 Bd 😇 ) das ganze WE gedauert ...

Zmodem struggle continues, I can download files from Mystic boards just fine, but no luck with C-NET.

It’s still fun and extremely satisfactory go get where I’m now with my own custom client

Can you somehow make rz and sz to transfer files in hex mode instead of bin32?

So the journey continues and today I can fully confirm that ZHEX data transfer is coming to my terminal. On the way to complete ‘rz’ in my little homebrew development.

I finally started to understand its logic!

My next thing in the Rust world is Z-modem but beyond that I'm also looking into legendary S-modem after I get Z-modem first in shape:

Back in the day S-modem enabled to download your games and porn, and chat with the sysop while doing it ;-)

the future of zmodem is async as I refined zmodem2 API as follows:

1. ZmodemSession holds the protocol state.
2. ZmodemEvent provides the interface for consuming next events.

I.e. it is to bind to the future (while being still decoupled from them). Also next version of protocol will be zero deps and can compile with rustc only.
