Thanks to Steve Noland , we now have XMDM105,
the latest version of XMODEM.  XMODEM is primarily of interest to
Remote CP/M system operators.  It allows unattended uploads and
downloads using the enhanced Christensen "MODEM" protocol (compatible
with MODEM7) using either CRC or CHECKSUM modes.  The file is
available via ANONYMOUS ftp from SIMTEL20 as:

Filename			Type	 Bytes	 CRC

Directory MICRO:
XMDM105.LBR.1			BINARY	 97408  6628H

Here are the CRCs for the library's internal files:

	File		Bytes		CRC

	READ.ME		3669		4A89
	WHAFOR.COM	1536		4C8C
	WHANEW.COM	1536		199A
	WHATSFOR.COM	1280		6240
	XMDEL.COM	1152		E3B7
	XMDM105.AQM	78208		E409
	XMDM105.DQC	5376		7004
	XMDM105.IQF	4224		C889

Here is what's new in recent versions:

XMDM105: Now accepts XMODEM R 6:HELLO.DOC.  It also accepts ZCPR
convention, using the current drive if none is mentioned.  Date
routine added for CP/M+ users.  As .PRL files are handled like .COM
files by CP/M+ systems, those are changed now to .OBJ files when using
the CPMPLUS equate.  Several useful auxiliary programs added such as
WHAFOR, WHATNEW, XMDEL, etc., for the SYSOP's use.

XMDM104 NEW CHANGES: Asks for a description of a non-private upload.
Creates and maintains a WHATSFOR.TXT file in A14: area.  A companion
program called WHATSFOR.COM would be placed in A0: to display the
contents of the description file, offering full security.  Most recent
descriptions will be shown first.  (A safety feature times out in
about two minutes if no description is typed.  This prevents permanent
hangups.)

XMDM103: When the WHEEL byte is set, XMDM103 allows SYSOPs to upload
files to any drive or user area in a normal manner.  Previous versions
required the SYSOP to use the same location (usually B0:) available
for remote user.

Configuration option CPMPLUS is provided to allow the TIMEON feature
to operate in a CP/M Plus environment.  The code includes page zero
definition changes as well as additions to the GETTIME subroutine.
Other recent changes listed early in XMDM103.ASM.
