YMODEM          A file transfer {protocol} used between {modem}s.   YMODEM was       developed by Chuck Forsberg as the successor to {XMODEM} and       was itself succeeded by {ZMODEM}.   XMODEM used 128-byte       {packet}s, YMODEM can also use 1 kilobyte packets.   Whereas       YMODEM is a batch protocol, {YMODEM-G} is a non-stop version.          File sizes are included in the YMODEM header when sending both       binary and text files.   Thus files transferred via YMODEM       should preserve their exact length.   File modification times       may also be present in the YMODEM header.          YModem can {fall back} to smaller packets when necessary but       there is no backward compatibility with XModem's error       detection.          [Chuck Forsberg, "XMODEM/YMODEM Protocol Reference"].          (1995-02-02)

YMODEM-G          A non-stop "streaming" version of {YMODEM} designed for       "error-free" connections with proper flow control; the       transmitting program sends packets to the receiver as fast as       it can without waiting for acknowledgements.   Any errors cause       the entire file transfer to abort.
