Zssh Anyone?

The thing I like about using rz/sz to transfer files is you can be in
a session already and say you find a file you want and you want to use
tab completion to spell out the whole file name; then you could use sz
to transfer the file.  Otherwise, you have to create a new ssh session
and tab completion won't work with scp to the a remote.

You're probably right about zssh not being current.  It looks like the
latest version is 2003.
