XMODEM          The "Christensen" file transfer {protocol}, probably the most       widely available protocol used for file transfer over {serial       line}s (e.g. between {modem}s).   XMODEM uses 128-byte {packet}s       with error detection, allowing the receiver to request       retransmission of a corrupted packet.   XModem is fairly slow       but reliable.          Several variations have been proposed with increasing packet       sizes (e.g. {XMODEM-1K}) and different error detection ({CRC}       instead of {checksum}) to take advantage of faster {modem}s.       Sending and receiving programs can negotiate to establish the       best protocol they both support.          Standard XMODEM specifies a one-second timeout during the       reception of characters in the data block portion of a packet.          Chuck Forsberg improved upon XMODEM by developing {YMODEM} and       {ZMODEM}.          [Chuck Forsberg, "XMODEM/YMODEM Protocol Reference"].          (1995-02-02)
