Shouldn't this be pcomm, since procomm is DOS specific and code is not
available for it, that I know of?

A note on using cu with ANY file transfer program--cu forks a second
copy of itself.  The two cu's separate IO duties, one taking incoming
data and displaying it on the terminal.  If you try to run a file
transfer program such as x/y/z modem this cu process and the file
transfer will compete for incoming characters and transfer will fail.

I have source for both pcomm and the xyzmodem programs.  email me
and I will get you copies.  I will need a bang path route, through
uunet preferred.  This should also be available from alphacm BBS
in Southern CA, if you are interested I also have phone number for
it.
