I thought I'd relay this here too (it was posted to the comp.os.cpm USENET newsgroup earlier today) -

Martin Eberhard has just released version 2.9 of his Xmodem file transfer program for CP/M.

"This is a minor tweak on version 2.8: the receiver is now flushed of any garbage characters before receiving a file. (Previous versions would get hung up due to leftover characters in the UART's buffers if you had aborted a file transfer before trying to transfer a new file).

You can find the new version in my directory that's hosted on Mike Douglas's website, here:

There's also a handy little program for confirming the functionality of your serial link, called XMTERM, here:

https://deramp.com/downloads/mfe_archive/005-Documentation%2 0and%20Code%20by%20Martin/010%20Code%20by%20Martin/CPM%20Cod e/XMTERM/

XMTERM is a simple terminal program that uses the same configuration file (XMODEM.CFG) as does the Xmodem program, so it tests the serial link as well as the config file setup.

Cheers,
Martin"
