DESCRIPTION
This program uses error correcting protocols to receive
files over a dial-in serial port from a variety of programs
running under PC-DOS, CP/M, Unix, and other operating
systems. It is invoked from a shell prompt manually, or
automatically as a result of an "sz file ..." command given
to the calling program.
This program is not designed to be called from cu(1),
tip(1), or other communications programs. Unix flavors of
Omen Technology's Professional-YAM communications software
are available for dial-out applications. Unix
Professional-YAM supports dial-out applications with
telephone directory, a powerful script language with learn
function, high quality multiple protocol support, and UUCP
port arbitration.

Contrary to popular belief, Unix is user friendly.
It just happens to be selective about who it makes friends with.
