- prlink is a nice system. I used it for several months, and would still be
- using it now if I had a system to run it on. It's probably just about THE
- fastest way to transfer files to your 64, as it can transfer as fast as the
- disk drive can handle.

- It's also fairly easy to write your own utilities that work with prlink
- (assuming you can program in C and 6502). The core components handle byte
- transfers, so you just have to build your protocol on top of that.
-
- If you've got a system that prlink works with, you should try it out.

- By the way, Marko, you're welcome to do whatever you want with the shell and
- talk programs I sent you several months ago.
