Both IMP and MEX, two excellent modem programs offering xmodem
transfers, are available on QLink.  They were all upload in
late 1985 and early 1986.  They require either the Dec 6 or 8,
1985 version of the CP/M operating system to work.  The Dec 6
version is available also on QLink.

I prefer MEX myself, that is what I am using right now.  I
have modified the terminfo entry for the adm31 so I can use
MEX with vi.  It works well, but a little slow.

I agree that QLink is not the best place to get technical
information.  To download MEX directly you want:

	mex.com and mex.hlp uploaded by Popcorn

The IMP program files:

	imp.doc, i2func.doc, i2func.com, i2lib.doc, and
	i2lib.com uploaded by LES J, and
	i2c8-1.asm and imp-c128.com uploaded by Bill P1

I hope this helps you get started.
