I use the Talk Is Cheap communications program and I can very easily
do batch tranfers.  TIC allows you to very easily write command files
for execution as keyboard macros.  One of the command files that I
have written is  a Y-modem batch tranfer routine that I use with
my local bulletin boards (all are IBM based).

I use an old version of TIC that I got when it was Shareware
however I have been told that It is no longer shareware.
(is this true)


BTW:  Has anyone ever heard of BIMODEM  tranfer for the
      Apple.  If it exists I WANT IT!
