No, or at least not without doing some own programming (the
Paralell boards for the ][ uses 652x devices in most cases).
Yes, the Serial of the //c is an ordinary, build in Super
Serial Card. But the //c will read CP/M files only in RAW
mode - so any nibble copy programm (or even RWTS programms)
can copy CP/M disks from DOS (>3.2, 16 Sector DOS) or ProDOS.
If you want to copy CP/M files logicaly (I think thats what
you need for transfer) you could only use the CP/M environment.
The best way is to put a SSC in an ][, ][+ or //e boot CP/M
and use MODEM7 for Transfer (and _ANY_ programm on the PC :)
You could also use any other serial card, if it is supported
by your CP/M - But its hard to find anything not SSC compatible .)
