Subject: New Files in MC:CPM;

There are two new files in the CPM directory, courtesy of Keith
Petersen (W8SDZ@MC).

The first is the previously mentioned MBOOT ASM program to get you
started downloading files using the MODEM2 program on the remote host.
The idea here is to keyin this code, tailoring it to suit, and then
use it to download MODEM2.  MODEM2 is used from then on to exchange
files between systems.  (Hopefully, some industrious soul will
volunteer to code up a mainframe version of MODEM2, suitable for use
on TOPS-20, TENEX, and ITS machines - DEVON@MC is working on a Lisp
version... - the specs can be made available upon request.)

The second program is an UNLOADed (HEX) copy of SD.COM (MC:CPM;SD HEX)
and is similar to XD, which in turn is similar to LIST.  Comments on
it are at the front of the file, including the CRC of the resulting
COM file.
