LapLink

LapLink helps you stay in touch with your home office system or get in
touch with other systems through infrared port, modem, network, or cable.
Use LapLink to transfer files, gain access to files on a remote system, or ex-
change written information with another user on a remote system. LapLink
even bridges the communication gap between Windows 3.11 and Windows
95 systems.
LapLink offers the following features:
T
File Transfer — lets you move or copy files between computers. To
speed file transfer, LapLink compares files being updated and transfers
only the changed information.
T
Remote Control — gives you access and control over a remote computer.
Activity you perform on a local system, such as keystrokes, file access
and change, and program execution, actually occurs on the remote
system.
T
Chat — provides a way for you to exchange information, instructions, or
other messages with a user at a remote computer.
LapLink software must be loaded on both the sending (local) and receiving
(remote) systems for communication between them to work properly.
