  The older Radio Shack TRS-80 Model 100 and Model 102 laptops had a program (I 
may still have it) called XMDPW5.CO -- it was a communications program to acess 
a data service (i.e. a BBS witout ANSI...there are very few of these 
left)...and use Xmodem protocol to transfer files with. The program was 
originally obtained from the Model 100 Forum on CompuServe...but, I think that 
forum is now defunct. I did use that program when I was on CI$ in the late 
1980's to obtain stuff...until I got an 8088 XT in 1992 for my birthday...which 
is where my present day BBS was "born". :)
