My most sincerely thanks for all those who replied to my question
about uploading to the unix!

I am now able to upload with Z-modem, and it was through using
a combination of several people's advices.

This is what I did, and hopefully this will help others out there
who can't upload (Steve, maybe this will help you.)

what I did was at the "csi-ts2>" prompt (this varies from
machines to machines/server to server, but it's the name on my end)

csi-ts2>term download

csi-ts2> term no escape
<BREAK> is the escape character
csi-ts2> term flow hard out

a simple local macro can be written with Proterm 3.0, so all you need
is to run it everytime you connect.  The macro is:

pr /term download^M term no escape^M term flow hard out^M/

I've tried "term download" and "term flow hard out" before, but
apparantly the escape character thing was what did it.  Special
thanks to Brendan Hoar!

Oh, term no escape mean "terminal no escape-character".  The old
setting was "^^X", which Brendan said is not good for uploads.
"term flow hard out" is terminal flowcontrol hardware out.  the
standard setting upon logon is flowcontrol software out, hardware
in.

And to login to the machine (called bonnie), instead of typing

csi-ts2>bonnie

directly, which is using telnet, I typed

csi-ts2>c bonnie

I don't know what the "c" command does (perhaps same as rlogin?)
but rlogin doesn't work properly.  (the "c" was suggested by Tero,
thanks!)

Cool!  I am so happy now that I don't even care that I can't upload
with ymodem-G :-)

Jimmy

P.S.  I'll be uploading the first of my converted .FLIs soon, to
cco.caltech.edu.  converted .FLI's are Paintworks animations ($C2
SHOW files.)
