I am having a problem with doing XModem file transfers using the APDA HyperCard
Communication Toolbox Toolkit (CTB).  While the other XCMDs in the HyperCard
CTB have worked for me, when I attempt to do a XModem file transfer, the
sending Mac completely locks up and the receiving machine lists repeated error
messages.  I have also been hearing rumors that there are problems with the
XModem part of the CTB (no argument here!).  [I must mention that this is beta
software from Apple that is for HyperCard 1.2.]

Alas, I still have need to do XModem file transfers from HyperCard.  If anyone
knows of other XCMDs that allow XModem transfers from HyperCard, I would be
most appreciative of the source.

I have received requests from others for purchasing information on the
HyperCard CTB (bugs and all); below is info from Apple:
