What is the Diff between Xmodem/Ymodem

[Jon Eckhardt]

Now, one question for all of you guys who know your communication 
packages.  What is the difference between Xmodem/Ymodem/Umodem/Kermit.
Which one do you guys think is the best of all of them and most versitile.
If this conversation gets real big I guess I could post a summary but I have
never done that before.  Thanks in advance for any info you can give me
or the net on this topic.
