Disk No: 1775 Disk Title: XPort PC-SIG Version: S2.1 Program Title: XPort Author Version: 2.1A Author Registration: $24.95 + $2.50 S&H Special Requirements: Serial ports on both machines and a null modem cab This utility uses the serial communication adapters (serial ports) in your PCs to transfer files from one machine to another. Serial transfer is much easier and faster than copying files from machine to disk to machine again. XPORT will allow you to transfer files between: a 5.25" disk drive on one machine and a 3.5" drive on another; or directly from one hard drive to another (regardless of file size); or between two drives that can't seem to read from each other's disks (common between 360K and 1.2MB drives). Many full-blown communication packages will do this job. But if you just want a simple, inexpensive method of getting the files from one system into another with a minimum of fuss and as conveniently as possible, use XPORT. Not sure about serial port parameters and how to set them? Forget it. The transporter sets them up the way it needs them. More than one port in your machine, but you're not sure which is COM1, COM2, COM3, and COM4? Don't worry. The transporter automatically detects which port you've got the cable plugged into. XPORT also includes XCLONE. Because the XPORT program must be on both computers to operate, you may need a way to get the XPORT program file installed on another computer with incompatible disk drives. XCLONE is a nifty little utility that copies XPORT to the other computer without the use of the disk drives.
