Subject: XMODEM 5.1

       I have taken the liberty, as I usually do, to modify the XMODEM.FOR
program to match my tastes, as I do with most PD software I lay my hands on.
If anyone is interested, it is in AR90:CPM as XMODEM.LQR.  This LBR file
contains 8 or 9 files, including a new source and COM (VAX Command) files.
The big differences between 5.0 and 5.1 are that (1) 5.1 is radically
restructured internally, employing more structured programming techniques
and fewer GOTOs, and (2) 5.1 supports the ST and RT options, wherein XMODEM
internally converts from CP/M text file format to VAX/VMS text file format
and back as required.  Also, two new VAX/VMS commands are available, called
SEND and RECV, which transfer text files only with conversion (intended to
be used as frequently-needed functions).

       Enjoy!

               Rick

P.S.  Keith, would you let the author know about this and provide him
with a copy if he wants one?  Thanks.
