Don't know for sure what happened, but here's a few things that might
help. First the -k option is only applicable for the xmodem/ymodem
protocol transfers under sz. Second, I believe sz sets the packet
length based on the current baud rate. I think that the -L option
overrides this (anyone is welcome to correctly me if I'm mistaken).
For the most part, I only use sz without options to transfer text
files and sz -b to transfer MacBinary files.
Cheers,
