I still use sz/rz on an almost daily basis, for doing embedded system development. The system I work with is only accessible over UART, so rz/sz is the only way to transfer files to the host PC (well, the only convenient way; the other way is through JTAG, which is a PITA, and only useful for imaging, not just transferring some small data file from the running system).
- housel 10y agoSame here. UART isn't always the only option on my platforms, but if Ethernet, WiFi, or USB gadget is unavailable for whatever reason, sz/rz (from Linux) or loady (ymodem, from U-Boot) is usually the next best choice. Minicom makes using these fairly convenient.
