By any chance has anyone written a program that will allow an IBM PC
to read and/or write a floppy for use in an Apollo(specifically
a 3500 running 9.7.1)? If not is anyone interested in helping in
hacking one out? Please reply directly, I'll post a summary if volume
demands it.

PS. This is sort of a carryover from the discussion in comp.sys.apollo.

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. -- --------------------------------- Mark C.
