Had a private email (sender asked not to be named) suggesting that I try
XMODEM A.05.00 from CSL Release F0 (which I have).

Dave Bryan, who wrote the HP3000 simulator for SIMH, has been looking
for hardware documentation on the HP-IB implementation (as introduced on
the Series 33 and continued with later models) and documentation on the
I/O instructions that were tailored to the new I/O structure.

If anybody can help him we might end up with an HP3000 simulator running
MPE-V/E after all.
