Hi,

How would I write a utility that can transfer files between a 486 sx
and a PII along a serial cable? and a parallel cable?
I tried with the DZCOM library but it did not work too well. I have
written the program to do this in QBasic but is almost slower than
using 360k floppies(the best thing the 486's drive can do). 

Thanks
Marc
