Is there a version of Xmodem (or Ymodem) that will send files from a
UNIX system?  Right now I'm using kermit, which is terribly slow,
prone to letting errors get through on downloads, and doesn't seem to
have any docs on the on-system manual.

In a related vein, are there programs to binhex and unbinhex on UNIX?
These might also be useful.

Please mail me a note indicating how to get these programs, if they exist.

Thanks,
Ken McDonald
