If you have a serial connection, use QuickPort OR PT100 on the
Newt and ZTerm or equivalent terminal emulator on the Mac.
If you have to use Ethernet, use Quickport.
Or you could set up ICQ clients on the Mac and Newt with 2
separate accounts and IM the text from Newt to
Mac. Unfortunately neither NewtCQ nor NewtJabber will allow you
to paste text into/out of the transfer window, but I think the
new Newton IM will.
