The second program is called AKEEDO ( however it is spelled ) it is a Mac to Mac communications program and it features all of the Mac icons allows for very fast file transfer,works in the background while you can do a lot of stuff that Timbuktu Remote does. It has been about three months sense I last saw and played with the program so I don't know what new things have been added. Version 11 has beefed up the Kermit to enclude long packets (you set the size), faster prefomance, and binary transfer.
