APDA offers a set of XCMDS called the HyperCard Serial Communications
Toolkit. Unfortunately it doesn't have xmodem, but it only costs $20.
 
If you want XMODEM you can spring for the Macintosh Communications
Toolbox ($80), the Macintosh Communications Tools, Basic Connectivity
Set ($50)--which has the XMODEM tool--and the HyperCard Macintosh
Communications Toolbox Toolkit ($30).

Sorry for the garbled subject - that was how we got it here.  anyway, I
understand that someone, at sometime asked:

I'll add to that the application called ModemMaker by (I think) Andrew Stein.
I have just received a copy, originally from Compuserve.  This app is supposed
to automate the creation of modem xcmds for hyupercard, among other things.
When I have looked at the app, I will upload info on its source and author, and
a short review of how it works.  Meanwhile, based on the word of an experience
user, it sounds like it may do what you want.
