Re: What is an Appleline device?

["Ernest" <ernestls@home.com>]

I copied this from an old AppleLink newsletter.

"In addition, Apple introduced two software utilities-the
 AppleLine 3270 File Transfer, a program for transferring files between
the IBM 3270 mainframe environment and Macintosh via Apple's 3270
protocol converter AppleLine."

Is anyone familiar with this device?
