[net.micro.cpm] bulk file transfers via xmodem

	Fellow netlanders:

		Being fully aware of the xmodem programs available from
	SIMTEL20, and using them to download software from our BSD4.2 vax
	to my micro....I was wondering if anyone knew of a version of
	xmodem that supports bulk transfers via wildcards and the like.

		I know that 'mget' in ftp allows bulk transfers from
	SIMTEL20 to my local vax system, and my version of MDM730 also
	supports bulk transfers....but the version of xmodem only 
	supports single file transfers.

		If anyone out there knows of a version of xmodem that
	does support bulk transfers, I'd surely be interested in hearing
	from him/her. It sure would make life a little easier.


					Long Live CP/M..
