	Many, many, UNIX machines have an X/YMODEM program.  Usually they are
called rb and sb.  Of course if you don't have one for the UNIX machine,
don't dispair, XMODEM is very simple to write (YMODEM is a bit more
complicated).  Almost all Apple programs which allow file transfer
use XMODEM protocol (though possibly under the names of MODEM, MODEM2,
MODEM7 (with batch file mode), TERM-II FTP 3, or Christensen Protocol).
If anyone needs the documentation on the XMODEM protocol I'm sure I could
dreg it up without much of a problem.
