PCGET
and PCPUT
are a pair of CP/M-80 programs used to do XMODEM
transfers to and from CP/M machines, presumably to modern PCs, usually over the console serial port.
This project requires the Glitch Works modified version of the A85
assembler to be compiled and available on your $PATH
. A85
can be found in our GitHub repository.
Machine-specific implementations can be built by assembling their respective PCGET.ASM
or PCPUT.ASM
.
Mike Douglas started releasing a number of PCGET
and PCPUT
implementation as a simple way to get files to and from vintage computers, when using another computer with a terminal emulator as the console port. His work is based on Ward Christensen's XMODEM implementation as found in CP/M MODEM
programs. Most of the work in this repository dates back to his 2015-10-07 version for the North Star Horizon, which itself was based on his version for the Vector Graphic.
