Subject: rzsz working partially on VTech Helio

Dear folks,
    The rz sz utility from www.omen.com  was partially working with VTech Helio with
very few modifications.
    1) makefile: change the cc to mipsel-linux-gcc and size to mipsel-linux-size under
the posix.
    2) modify the file rz.c, line 331 to mode(3).
    3) modify the file rbsb.c, in the procedure inittty(), mask out the Tty lines and
only assign the Tty to /dev/ttyS0. Tty = open(Nametty = "/dev/ttyS0",2);
    4) make posix
    5) the binary file rz and sz can download to Helio. I'm using minicom to act as
serial console to the Helio. On minicom, I can sz any file from VTech helio with rz
in minicom. If I change /mnt on VTech Helio, I can upload a file from Host minicom to
Helio.
    There is still not reliable and always TIMEOUT, and the transfer speed was very
low.
    I hopes I can fix these out  so we can have one useful utility on the VTech Helio
development. If anyone has any idea, I will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks for your attention.
