     Description:

	VMODEM is  the VMS version of the UMODEM program which uses the
     XMODEM  protocol  used on many micros.  I've included this program
     because  the VAXNET program now supports this protocol and you may
     wish  to  use  this program instead of the SNDRCV program for file
     transfers.  The XMODEM protocol has better error checking than the
     SNDRCV protocol but only allows sending or receiving a single file
     at a time.  It also has the advantage of running on UNIX where the
     SNDRCV program does not.

     WARNING:

	Receiving  files from the VMODEM program works just fine (doing
     a  VAXNET  GET  command).  But sending files to VMODEM has lots of
     overhead since it does single character reads.  At slow baud rates
     this isn't too bad but at higher baud rates it eats up VMS.
