YMODEM

YMODEM is a file transfer protocol. It belongs to a category of protocols that work on top of an already-established connection, typically a modem connection to a BBS.

As far as we can tell, YMODEM was not particularly successful. This may have been because there were several incompatible variants of it, and/or because of the small window of time between it and the development of ZMODEM.
