  I think that the MicroSoft Windows 3.0 Terminal program has Xmodem
capability (I am not a PC expert, I only own a PC but no modem). On
HP-UX (7.0) there is also a Xmodem compatible program called
"umodem(1)". A "man -k xmodem" would have revealed this "secret". And
don't believe the manual page which says "Series 300 only".

  There is also software (SoftPC) for HP-UX which emulates a PC, but you
don't need it to read/write DOS floppies, stock HP-UX can do this. See
"dosif(4)" (and again a "man -k dos" would have revealed this). With a
little trick you can even format floppies. Post or write if you need
this too.
