[net.micro.cpm] VAX/VMS XMODEM File Transfer Programs

RCONN@SIMTEL20.ARPA (11/19/83)

From:  Rick Conn <RCONN@SIMTEL20.ARPA>

The programs I spoke of the other day which make up a set of file transfer
programs which run under VAX/VMS are stored on SIMTEL20 in MICRO:<CPM.VAXVMS>.
The following is a display of this directory:

   MICRO:<CPM.VAXVMS>
 CPM.COM.1
 FMXMOD.FOR.1
 QIO.DCK.1
 TOXMOD.FOR.1
 XMODEM.FOR.1
   .FORDOC.1
   .HLP.1

The TOXMOD and FMXMOD programs convert from VAX/VMS text file format
to CP/M format and back, resp.  XMODEM itself automatically handles this
if you tell it you are transferring text files.  The file CPM.COM is
a VAX/VMS command file which establishes the command names for the transfer
(such as XMODEM or X to invoke the program in general interactive mode,
SEND to simply send text files, and RECV to simply receive text files).
I have my LOGIN.COM file automatically execute CPM.COM to give me these
commands.  You will probably have to modify CPM.COM to indicate the
directories you chose to store the programs in.
