FYI/tip: an easier way to get the ADT program to the Apple II from an AT
class computer. Set up the Apple II as suggested using the IN# command
from a DOS 3.3 boot disk.  On the AT computer side, get to a DOS prompt
and type the following two lines instead of worrying about the modem
software.  This is limited to com1 or com2 on the AT class computer, but
works well across a null modem cable.  I have verified this twice, both
times at the normal speeds of the apple computers (IIe & IIgs) and using
M$DOS6 and a M$Win9x DOS window.  Replace the X below with the port# (1
or 2) and chdir (cd) into the folder where the adtgs.dmp file is
located.

mode comX: baud=300 data=8 parity=n
type adtgs.dmp >comX:

Thankx,
