But, doesn't the IR link have a file size limit?

<< A program doesn't have to specifically "support" the IR link.  The IR link
 will already work for everything else fine as long as there are only 2 IR
 links involved.  You can play Ztetris with the IR link and even send a file
 from one calc to the other.  The problem arises when more than two IR links
 are in the same area.  For situations like that, there are a few IR specific
 programs for chatting that make it so only messages intended for you are
 displayed on your screen, etc.  But basically, the IR link acts EXACTLY as
 your normal calc-to-calc cable, so you can play games, transfer files, and
 even chat with Rterm, no problem.
