                     28: .fi
                     29: Umodem uses the Christensen protocol to transfer files to
                     30: and from CP/M systems.
                     31: 
                     32: Umodem -- Implements the "CP/M User's Group XMODEM" protocol, the
                     33: TERM II File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Number 1, and the TERM II
                     34: File Transfer Protocol Number 4 for packetized file
                     35: up/downloading.
                     36: 
                     37: There is currently no batch transfer capability.  The program
                     38: writes logging data to a file in the user's home directory
                     39: called umodem.log.
                     40: 
                     41: The program will do a protocol file transfer with error checking
                     42: to or from a CP/M system running Ward Christensen's program MODEM
                     43: or one of its derivatives (MODEM7 or APMOD777 etc.) or any
                     44: program that uses the same protocols (e.g. ZPRO, TERM II).  Note that
                     45: executable and squeezed files must use the -sb or -rb options.
                     46: 
                     47: Umodem supports an interactive mode in which the user may perform
                     48: a number of Umodem-oriented functions without leaving Umodem.  These
                     49: functions (and their commands) are:
