Does anyone know of an xmodem program for cpm that runs on the console port. It seems to me that the bbs xmodems are written to interface with bye in a bbs enviroment. I am using my pc as the console terminal on my cpm system. I would like to xmodem files between them without needing another terminal or lots of cable switching. This would be like umodem on unix. -- Dave Trulli NN2Z AT&T Technology Systems Holmdel NJ. 201-949-4774 houxk!djt

Yes, XMODEM is what you want. It does not require the BYE program. It's available from SIMTEL20 as: Filename Type Bytes CRC Directory PD:<CPM.RCPM> XMDM124.LBR.1 BINARY 113792 4437H If you are unable to access SIMTEL20 because of network restrictions it's also available on my RCP/M Royal Oak (MI) which may be accessed at 300 bps (Bell 103a), 1200 bps (Bell 212a), or 2400 bps (V.22 bis). The telephone number is (313) 759-6569. It can also be found on the CP/M RoundTable on General Electric Information Services' GEnie. You'll need a hardware overlay, which you'll find in XMDM-OVL.LBR. Chose the appropriate one for your computer's I/O port arrangement. --Keith Petersen Arpa: W8SDZ@SIMTEL20.ARPA GEnie Mail: W8SDZ uucp: {ihnp4,allegra,cmcl2,dual,decvax,mcnc,mcvax,vax135}!seismo!w8sdz
