OK, then I will not accept it. I hate minicom, and I'm actively blackballing it ;-)
I also find it very important to support minicom on Linux systems because it is the default terminal program in many Linux distributions. And it is not true that the usage of sx-at91 would be restricted only to minicom; minicom itself doesn't contain transfer programs for X-, Y- and Z-MODEM; instead it uses the external programs from the rzsz package. A proper solution would be fixing the rzsz's sx program so it doesn't cause X-MODEM protocol errors for the AT91 implementation. Even M$ Hyperterminal behaves correctly.
There is something seriously broken with your quoting. This was not typed by you, but is a quote of a previos posting by Andreas Schweig- still!
=> And this is exactly what Marco Cavallini's sx-at91 does I do not know if sx-at91 is a generic tool for X-Modem supporting all
No, obviously it isn't. It is NOT a fix to the rzsz but instead a specialized package duplicating functions of a well-known standard tool. This alone is reason enough not to distribute it.
Andreas' suggestion was good: instead, please fix the rzsz tool.
With best regards Andreas
