Star Gate is a utility that allows easy transfer of files between PC and Mac,
or PC and PC, via a serial link. If you need to transfer files between computers
and don't want to bear the expense of network cards, transceivers and
commercial network software then you need Star Gate.

Star Gate is easy to configure and requires only a cheap null-modem cable. It
can transfer whole directory trees and reconstruct the tree on the receiving
computer. It also performs text translation so the line endings of text files
are always correct for the receiving computer. The interface is simple and
convenient. To send a file to another computer simply drag it to the outgoing
directory and it will automatically appear in the incoming folder of the other
computer. Forget about protocols, packets, CRCs etc. just drag your files!

The zip file contains:

StarGate.exe                  32-bit executable for Windows 95, Windows NT
StaGat16.exe                  16-bit executable for Windows 3.1, WFW 3.1
StarGate.hlp                  the windows help file
SG_Mac.hqx                    a Macintosh binhex 4.0 file containing the
                              Macintosh version of the program
readme.txt                    this file

To install the Macintosh software copy SG_Mac.hqx to a DOS formatted
floppy disk and insert it into a Macintosh running PC exchange. Run
BinHex 4.0 to decode the file, this will give you a self extracting
archive (StarGate.sea). Double click the archive icon to expand it.
Please contact the author if you need further advice.
