Yes, I think I have a laplink cable also. But the program? Or what linux
program can use a laplink cable? Assuming Hamish is working in linux at this
point.

Null-modem cables are still available new, if required. We still use them
extensively in the offshore survey industry, which is still heavily reliant
on the old serial port.
I might have both a serial and parallel lap link cable floating about if
required.

I think I have a 25-15 converter already, but yeah a Centronics cable and
a null-modem serial cable would be useful. IIRC, they can also be uses for
file transfer, or would I need a special parallel cable for that too?
I know there's an option for it somewhere in the settings, I'll have a
look and get back to you later.

I have both, hidden away in the garage. Is that a parallel
printer(Centronics) cable that you want, or just a 25way extension cable.
Also somewhere I should have some 25-15 way D-converters if required.
(not exactly sure where they are).
