I am looking for implementations of the Modem7 and Xmodem protocols to run
on a DEC VAX under the VMS operating system, version 4.2.  Sources in just
about any language would do the trick, but of course Macro would be handiest
to carry around in VMS-land.  Public-domainness is a prerequesite.

We have been happily running Kermit for quite some time now, but some of our
users also frequent the commercial networks and the local BBSs and would
find it convenient to use the other common file-transfer protocols.  So if
there are any other common protocols or variant dialects (isn't there
something called Xmodem/CRC?) that you know of that have been implemented on
VMS, please send me pointers.  Thanks muchly...
