Installs a network between 2 Amigas
.description
ProNET is a hardware/software combination that installs a small network
between two and NOT more Amigas. This can be used to exchange data from
both Amiga's devices. The difference between ParNet, written by Matthew
Dillon and others, and ProNET is that you can mount the other Amiga's
devices as if they were present on this machine, that means you don't have
to access the other 'DF0:' indirectly by using 'NET:df0/...' but you can
mount it as e.g. 'DF2:' on this Amiga. The other device is emulated
PERFECTLY, so that you won't notice that it exists on the other machine in
fact - You can e.g. access a disk in the other 'DF0:' by it's name instead
of having to use 'DF2:', then you can get full information about the status
(% full etc.) - just like as it was a real device in your first Amiga.
Of course there are extra programs supplied known from ParNET, with which
you can start commands on the other Amiga or just talk between them.
Full developer information is available for programmers that want to code
extra tools using the pronet.device.

.requirements
The software should work on any Amiga, but it doesn't. The
'pronet-handler' makes some problems with Kickstart 1.3, but all the other
programs run on OS1.3 ! But that's OK, because I don't need the handler on
my A500 :-)
