Actually, any good terminal emulation program will do. On the clone,
you can reroute the console to a serial port with the DOS CTTY command.
On the Mac, you can use Kermit 9(40) which runs fine under multifinder.
For remote PC operation, you could run Procomm Host on the PC and
dialup the clone with Kermit 9(40) on the Mac. Procomm Host allows
password and DOS shell protection as well
