I have written a procedure using my User Supported VT-100 emulator,
PC-VT along with a version of XMODEM on the Apollo to transfer ASCII
files between the PC and the Apollo via a SIO port (which every
Apollo has).

Not quite as convenient as reading a floppy nor as expensive as buying
Apollo's DPCC software.

If anyone would like a copy, I have it posted on my BBS at
619-549-3927.
