Hang Man Transfer Utility for Newton



hangMan Transfer software (HMX) is a free helper application that allows you to transfer hangMan text dictionaries back and forth between Newton and a desktop computer via a serial connection and a standard terminal emulator. To use HMX you will need the following:



1) A MessagePad 100, MessagePad 110, MessagePad 120, Motorola Marco, or a MessagePad 120 with Newton 2.0. (I'm sorry, but because of changes in Apple's compiler the code will not work with the Original MessagePad or the Sharp ExpertPad.)



2) A serial cable to connect your Newton to your desktop computer.



3) A terminal emulation program that runs on your desktop computer.



Send in your dictionaries! We will add them to the hangMan page for others to download.
