I want to transfer files from an ibmpc to a c64. Does anyone know how to with a cable and hardware. I seem to remember something in an old edition of transactor , anyone remember which edition or give me some help/pointers. Thanks Andrew. ****************************************************************************** Andrew V Cerasuolo The above comments are mine solely and not that Sciences Workshop of Deakin University.

I do this all the time when working on machine language -- I assemble the program on the IBM and then transfer the object file to the 64. You need a null modem cable (or just a null modem) and an RS232 interface for the 64. You will probably also need a gender changer (I use a female to female -- lesbian hardware). Everything should be 25-pin except for your 9-to-25 pin serial cable on the IBM. Then, just load up a terminal program on each computer, and what you type on one should show up on the other. From there you can do normal file transfers. Nick
