- 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!
