Yeah, I have used ADT, and in fact it was the first tool I used to transfer disk images to the Apple. The problem with ADT though is that you have to go into your /etc/inittab file and remove the entry for the terminal on the port you want to use with it, which is a pain to do every time you want to transfer disks. That wouldn't be a problem if you don't use serial terminals, or use an Apple II as the console, but...Thank-you about the DSK2FILE suggestion Ian. One suggestion though: seeming as you are doing this over a serial port (ie. Kermit) you should try something called ADT for the .DSK images. It is specific to .DSK images, but it is also very fast. Unlike Kermit. Though I do agree that Kermit is one of the most reliable file transfer programs I have used on the Apple II.
But yes, I agree. ADT is a wonderful piece of software, and it is quite fast. Just not as convenient in my situation as Kermit :)
