Does anyone know where (anonymous ftp?) I can get a program for a Prime
that will allow me to transfer programs from the Prime to another machine
using X-Modem?

(If this is the wrong place for this question, I appologise)

Xmodem requires an 8-bit transparent data path, which until primos 22.0
was no documented/supported way to do on a normal terminal line.  (The
nasty pre-21 hack should definatly be avoided if you care about your
system.)

Kermit works just fine, and is redily available for ftp from
watsun.cc.colubia.edu .  If the other end supports windows as well,
it's probably faster as well.
