This should not happen at all....
Are you sure hardware handshake is implemented in your null-modem cable, and
that the software on the PC uses it?
Otherwise, it might happen that buffers overflow when using Y-modem-G-batch.
With normal Y-modem-batch there should be no problem.
If there still is a problem, another terminal program on the PC could help,
or maybe
there is a problem in the RS232C interface design. (my fault I guess)
If I have time and feel happy to do it, I might write some kind of
file-commander over
a serial link sometime. But since I do not have much time, it could be this
project
will never start at all...
