Does anyone have source to a LaddieAlpha type TPDD "server" program, but

Not that I've seen yet, but I have seen some client code in gwbasic in
the M100SIG:

I have this idea to have a CP/M machine (in this case, a recently built
Altair clone) act as a file server for my ModelT. This is obviously just
a "for the fun of it" project with little practical value, but I thought
it would be worth asking here if anyone had already done something like
this.
I suppose a relevant followup question would be, "what com settings are
necessary to support TPDD?" (baud rate, bits, etc.) I think that my
target machine can't do serial comms faster than 9600, so maybe this
project is impossible.
(My *real* "for the fun of it" project would be doing an 8080 CP/M ASM
program that hosts a TPDD dialog, but I'm afraid that my level of
commitment to this project is not equal to the difficulty.)
Thanks for indulging my questions,
