Re: 2 Macs + several apple2s, best way to xfer things ?



Ed,

You are right. adt is the solution. I finally found it but it was not
easy as it was hidden inside Gerard Putter's Virtual II :

" A2V2 converts Apple II diskettes to disk image files and vice versa.
It is fully compatible with the ADT protocol. Design and programming:
Gerard Putter. ADT design: Paul Guertin. Additional testing: Dave
Dribin. A2V2 is free."

It  seems to be what I was looking for: 

-works under osx.
-xfers thru the serial port. even usb-serial adapters.
-automatically xfers and builds adt on the a2 side.
-xfers images in both directions.

thanks,
jorge.
