So rz/sz can be used like you would any other file transfer command (like scp). It's a command line tool so you can use it today if you are connected to a machine that has that tool installed, can't you ?

Said differently : can you describe a bit more in details how you would integrate rz in Ásbrú ?

In essence the way it works is that the SSH client supports ( It would be Asbru in this case) rz Receive ZMODEM protocol , the said SSH client then detects can automatically the remote client sending a ZMODEM transfer.

Several other packages XShell, SecureCRT, Kermit, Qodem, etc. support this mode of operation which is quite popular for system admins as you can just sz from the command line of the other machine ( provided the sz command is installed which it is in most if not every cases)

In addtion it should also possible to sz from Asbru to the remote machine provided a rz command has been started there.

Of course integration is needed because of 'jumpserversandsocks5` proxy are integrated in Asbru and so passing the necessary parameters to an external program is a lot of extra work and sometimes not possible without hacking ASBRU itself anyway.

An example of this using KERMIT is here below:

Here is an implementation that could help ?

Tabby has a trzsz-ssh plug-in :

And that plug-in provides Send and Receive Capabilities with Drag and Drop for the Send Capabilities and optional POP UP for download location selection on receive.
