redirection puzzle

[Gene Heskett]

Greetings;

I have a terminal program running on the far end of a bluetooth serial 
circuit that is capable of handling the reception, or sending, of a file via 
the zmodem protocol.

Unforch, the linux version of sz seems to fall short in 2 respects.

1.  I am only seeing two **B000000 in the received string, I was under the 
impression there should be ***B000000 etc, am I right|wrong?

FWIW, if I fire up minicom, no characters are gobbled up from what I type on 
this end.  And conversely, no characters are lost by minicom of those I type 
on the other end.

2. The man page for sz ignores any references to the proper redirection of 
the desired path, and while I can get it to attempt a send according to the 
traffic monitor in blueman-manager, in fact I see traffic going both ways in 
the blueman-manager status line, but nothing is actually transmitted to the 
other end, and in 30 seconds or so, sz reports:

Retry 0: Timeout on pathname

Transfer incomplete

This in spite of the fact that I gave it an -C10 -b filename on the 
invocation.

So what is the proper "<>>" way to make sz use /dev/rfcomm0 for all transfer 
I/O?  Man bash gives no examples for redirection of stdout and stdin 
simultainiously(sp?)

Thanks all
