I've used extremely little DOS, but I remember seeing LapLink in
there. I think it could even bootstrap itself across a serial port to a
different machine, as long as DOS was installed. And then it could copy
pretty much everything else over.
I have a copy of the laplink software should anyone need it. If the cable
for parallel is just a null modem I suggest a person in this hobby
definitely add laplink to the bag of tricks available. You just fire it up
on both ends ll.exe ... and you'll see a directory tree of target machine
on the right, the source machine on the left. Pick files and copy. Copies
recursively etc.

It was useful
to "image" DOS computers with it.
Ah, thank you. I have been trying to remember that name since this thread
