[ale] FW: Zmodem commands (fwd)

[aminus at mindspring.com]

Sorry for all the screwy formatting, but I'm not subscribed from work, so I had to send this to my house, and the forward it from there using Mindspring's webmail thingy. If it's too difficult to read, I'll resend once I get home. 

Thanks,
