     It is a 'jumper block'-- the square thing with the arrow pointer. (See
http://home.swbell.net/rubywand/Csa2T1TCOM.html#013 .)

     Probably, you should be using Agate. It does Zmodem transfers and has a
more user-friendly interface. Agate v069 is available from Uni-kl.de at
ftp://ftp.uni-kl.de/pub/apple2/utilities/ and from Ground as a disk image at
ftp://ground.ecn.uiowa.edu/apple2/useful.stuff/Disks/ .
