Switches for ZMODEM File Transfers
There are a number of switches especially for use with ztransmit
and zreceive. A switch consists of the
character / (or - on some platforms) plus one or more
letters. The following file transfer switches can be abbreviated to the
fewest unique letters, for example, different can be abbreviated
to di, or nostamp to nos.
The switches should come after the file transfer command but before
any arguments, for example:
ztransmit/app/exist *.lst *.dat
zreceive -rec my*.*
These switches narrow the selection of which files in a batch are sent:
different longernewer
newer existing
These switches control how the file is handled at the receiving end:
append nostamp
recovery text
These switches control how the file transfer takes place:
crc16 encode
window
In addition to these special ZMODEM switches, with ztransmit
you can use many of Autolog's other file transfer
switches too.
