No FTP, no z-modem , no piping into RS232.
There is filetransfer between 2 Liliths, or writing to Apple-2 formatted
floppy's. Looks rather cumbersome.
If I could get the Lilith i to remain stable for a decent amount of time
then I might have a go at writing a Modula2 program for reading sectors
and dump these via RS232.
The disk interface ( Honeywell Bull D120 ) is unlike anything I have
ever seen, so attaching it to something Linux box or so is currently not
possible.
