Does YMODEM support the zero packet format?

YAM supported the zero packet format, but it was ignored by many 3rd party implementations of YMODEM. When one implementation attempted to send the zero packet to a non-aware version, the receiver would naturally NAK the packet, as packet zero is illegal.

What are some common YMODEM protocol * operations that have been left out?

Some of the Ymodem protocol * operations have been voluntarily left out. * timeout expressed in seconds.
