LapLink
The LapLink file transfer and device driver programs, products of Traveling Software Inc., are furnished
with your TravelMate 2000. LapLink makes it practical to use a computer without a floppy drive. LapLink
requires use of a special cable also furnished with your TravelMate 2000.
LapLink fills the need for a fast, convenient, error-free means of transferring files. Connected by the
furnished LapLink cable and running the LapLink program, two computers have complete access to each
other's disk drives-and to all the files on those drives, You can copy files the following ways:
From one hard disk directly to another (without using floppies at all)
From one floppy to another (eliminating the incompatibility between 5.25- and 3.5-inch
floppies)
From a hard disk to floppies
LapLink File Transfer Utility
Though copying is its specialty, LapLink is more than a simple file-transfer program. By offering such
features as file Erase, Rename, and View, LapLink has proved itself a useful tool for managing files and
directories on a single computer.
Just as important as what it does is the way LapLink does it. Whether you are copying, erasing, renaming, or
viewing files
,
using LapLink is easier than using only MS-DOS commands. LapLink shows you the files and
directories you are working with and the commands that perform the various operations.
