What i think was discussed is using just normal terminal program to write programs to at89c51 using UART with the serial and max232 chip.Is that the case.

Not the at89c51 - that was the Dallas DS89C450:

However, many modern variants can be programmed in-system (ISP = In-System Programming) without the need for a seprate programmer.
Most of these use simple (usually free) software that runs on a PC (or other host platform) rather than just a terminal program.
For these, you would need a piece of code called a "Bootloader" if you wanted to make them downloadable from a plain terminal.
(actually the chips do have a bootloader - it just talks to the special programming software, rather than a plain terminal program).
