rz will automatically switch between zmodem, ymodem or xmodem depending on
what it sees from the other computer, so if you replaced umodem with rz,
you should be able use any of those protocolls.  BUT, ATE sends umodem a
file name which, I think, will throw rz into xmodem mode.  I'm not sure
what other parameters ATE sends umodem, but I doubt that they all work on
rz.  What's needed is a go-between program, or you could just get Pcomm
and save yourself a lot of trouble.
