I transferred data from an Atari ST to my Apple //c with Proterm using
a cable from serial port to serial port, but I have one problem (which
you may have if you do this way).  the copy buffer on the apple was only
20(something)K so now i have a bunch of chopped files that need to
be stuck together.  Anyone got a fun way to do this?  Or is there
a way to save to disk as things come in?  hm
