well, don't really needed the answer for my previous email. I think  
the fastest way to use ZModem with Rev is using the same tecnique  
used by BBS back in the good old days. Use a shell program.

If you're lucky to be on windows (argh, never thought I'd say that),  
you have tons of command line tools to do Z/X/YModem and Kermit. You  
would just use shell() to launch the program, that was the way that  
old BBS coped with file transfers. Altough some have builtin X and  
Zmodem.

if you're on unixland you also have some tools available.

The wonderfull BBS Documentary site got all those tools for download...
