When sending a file from a remote machine to the NeXT, use tip and type:
	sz file
once you have logged on successfully to the remote machine.  Then execute the  
tip command "~$" and at the Local Command? prompt type:
	rz -1

The -1 parameter allows zmodem to work through tip, so you'll need to get the  
version of zmodem for the NeXT which supports this option.  There were two  
different version of zmodem when I started using the NeXT, but only one works  
with tip.  Just type:
	rz -h
and you should see the following:

rz 1.26 08-21-87 for V7/BSD by Chuck Forsberg
Usage:  rz [-1abeuv]            (ZMODEM Batch)
or      rb [-1abuv]             (YMODEM Batch)
or      rx [-1abcv] file        (XMODEM or XMODEM-1k)
          -1 For cu(1): Use fd 1 for input
          -a ASCII transfer (strip CR)
          -b Binary transfer for all files
          -c Use 16 bit CRC     (XMODEM)
          -e Ignore control characters  (ZMODEM)
          -v Verbose more v's give more info
