Does anyone have a source for a XMODEM program for a VAX/VMS.  
If you have any information, please contact me.

Jerry - The VAX/VMS modem programs are in the directory "micro:<cpm.vaxvms>
on Simtel20.  The listing for this directory is attached.  If you need help
in getting the files, post a request for assistance, and someone on the list
will help you.

Two comments:
1) I have used the XMODEM in the Simtel libary and it works finewith one proviso: To make it work at 4800  or 9600 baud, we
had to give the command which increases the typeahead buffer
size on the VAX (something like "ALTBUF", I think).
For it to take effect, we then had to log off and back on.
There may be a better way to do it permanently,
but I think it requires system-administrator privileges.

2) There is an XMODEM written in C available from DECUS.
I have not used in myself, but the people at the University
of Rochester's Production Automation Project say it
works well.
