Xmodem module

[Emile van Sebille]

Thanks, Michal.  The customer's a windows/novell shop, and
though I can get python in the door, I won't get *nix in.  I
think I'll go look for a command line based scriptable
windows thing.  A quick search shows Hyperterm has xmodem,
but I can't find COM info (yet/ever?), and I see some
windows based C-source code, so maybe I'll give it a quick
shot.

Then again, maybe the bank will let me FTP it to them...

See you,
