[comp.lang.pascal] Xmodem File Transfer Protocol Algorithm

tch@phobos.cis.ksu.edu (Thomas C Hampton ) (04/20/91)

Hello fellow netters!

  I need the specs for Xmodem.  I don't necessarilly need source code.  All
I really need is a detailed description of the actual protocol.  Can someone 
point me in the right direction, or send me the info.  E-mail or news is
fine...While we are on the subject any other protocols would be nice to have
as well.  I am writing a comprehensive communications package for a 
pdp-11/23 and would like to include some error checking protocol in the package

sense of achievement you get from getting them to work at all.  
  In other words...their fundamental design flaws are completely hidden by 
their superficial design flaws."
