I've done this using Z-Term. But IMHO its more trouble than its worth. How
about getting a floppy adapter & drive for the Duo & just swapping floppys?
Or, if you transfer large files, a SCSI dock & Zip drive. The PC formatted
disks will mount on the Mac desktop.
Godd luck,

I would like to use my Duo 230 more for work purposes, which is regrettably
entirely PC based. It occured to me that you could easily transfer files to
and from a PC via a serial connection using a null-modem cable that
connected the Duo's printer port to the standard serial port of any PC. Then
using a terminal application on the PC (e.g. Hyperterminal) and a terminal
application on the Duo, you could use modem file transfers to send files
back and forth.
Has anyone ever done this and if so, what application did you use on the
Duo? Also does anyone know of any more sophisticated applications that do
this, e.g. the ability to mount the PC disk on the Duo's desktop would be
nice.
