Correct.

Thanks!

Ah, okay, that does sound like a bug. A debug log from both the sender
and receiver would be helpful. I'll try to see if I can reproduce that
locally too.
> *In module CHATGUI.py where you check for file size.*
That's actually just a limit for doing a text chat dump. I
added that to avoid having people send huge text files which splatter
everyone's chat screen. It's *not* in effect during a file, form, or
image transfer. I think you're seeing an actual bug.
> Something changed this as I had NO yellow background text.
...because you were getting whole blocks this time. If you changed your
power save setting on a handheld or something, that could have been the
difference. I promise I haven't changed anything about that in recent
releases :)

Yep, I don't have trouble with USB adapters either.

Well, if you're hitting a bug, it's kinda hard to say that it will
behave the way it's supposed to :)

There is, it just doesn't work :) It's been something I've been
avoiding, but I know it's something I need to fix.
