Our VAX has Xmodem 5.4.  Someone here modified it somewhat and called it
version 5.4.3.  I can either send you the source (which is actually a couple of
files as there is the Fortran source, and include file, and a few other
associated files) or I could just uuencode the .exe file and ship it.  And
since we're both on a VAX I may be able to just ship you the .exe without
uuencoding it via SEND/FILE/VMSDUMP.  Let me know what you want.  By the way,
the 5.4.3 version is much better than 5.4, especially if you are using it for
Commodore transfers.  I can get the source for either.
