Compatible with:

Armite F4 ArmiteH7 Picomite CMM2
Syntax:
XMODEM RECEIVE file$ [,comportno]
XMODEM SEND
file$ [,comportno]
Description:
Transfers a BASIC program to or from a remote computer using the XModem
protocol.
The transfer is done over the serial console connection.
XMODEM SEND will send 'file$' held on the Colour Maximite's SD card to the
remote device.
XMODEM RECEIVE will accept 'file$' sent by the remote device and save it on the
Colour Maximite's SD card.
If the file already exists it will be overwritten when receiving a file.
SEND and RECEIVE can be abbreviated to S and R.
The XModem protocol requires a cooperating software program running on the
remote computer and connected to its serial port.
It has been tested on Tera Term running on Windows and it is recommended that
this be used.
After running the XMODEM command in MMBasic select:
File -> Transfer -> XMODEM -> Receive/Send from the Tera Term menu to
start the transfer.
The transfer can take up to 15 seconds to start and if the XMODEM command fails
to establish communications
it will return to the MMBasic prompt after 60 seconds and leave the program
memory untouched.
CMM2 only: If ‘commportno’ is specified the transfer will take place over
the serial port specified (1 or 2).
In this case the port must have been previously opened with an appropriate
baudrate.

Micromites without a file system receive XMODEM file directly to the program flash. 'file$' should be omitted.
