There is IIGS software for the Mac version of the X10.  It connects
to the serial port of the IIGS or Mac.  The IIGS software replaces
the Mac software that comes with the card.  It was shareware and
in the form of an NDA (New Desk Accessory) which you activated
under the Apple menu.  GS/OS, of course.

I'm not sure where you would go about finding the software.  I
think the ground ftp server should have it.
