Amiga Explorer description
Connect an Amiga with one or more PCs. Supports serial and TCP/IP connections
Connect an Amiga with one or more PCs, and access Amiga resources (e.g. files, floppy and hard disk images, ROM transfer, etc.) from the Windows desktop.
Amiga Explorer is a replacement tool for windows explorer.
Now with a revolutionary self-install technology that requires no additional Amiga software (PC filing system, terminal software, etc.) Supports serial and TCP/IP connections, including Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Available in a standalone package or as part of Amiga Forever.
Here are some key features of "Amiga Explorer":
· Copy data to and from the Amiga, and move, rename, delete, format and examine
properties of Amiga files, directories and volumes, through the familiar Windows Desktop and Explorer interfaces
· Write and read ADF (floppy disk image) files with a simple drag-and-drop (e.g. download an ADF file from the internet to the PC, then drop it over the Amiga floppy disk icon with Amiga Explorer to write the Amiga disk)
· Access and copy virtual HDF (hard disk images, or hardfiles) and ROM image files from the Amiga to the PC, very useful for archiving and emulation purposes
· View Amiga-specific file attributes, view geometry information for disk partitions, and format disks on the Amiga
· Run the Windows and the Amiga side on the same computer to access the content of ADF and HDF files (requires installation of the Amiga side in an Amiga emulation environment)
Limitations:
· Amiga explorer can access files on any type and size of Amiga partition, however the creation of virtual hardfiles uses 32-bit logic (as in the original Amiga OS up to version 3.1) which limits the maximum size of HDF disk images that can be created
· Amiga Explorer does not include any Amiga emulation software (if you need both Amiga Explorer and a legal Amiga emulation and OS package you may want to consider Amiga Forever, which costs only a little bit more)
