This is a small entry just to show you i have found a method to make communicate Applewin Via USB to a serial Arduino Uno Genuino Serial port. To build it i have used the program in the file i have attached here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jl7DvtRdzW5-8C5Hgb0GnChKGwnPWpEz/view?usp=sharing and upload it to arduino rom via Arduino ide. Then i have connected the Arduino's usb ports to computer and Arduino and started AppleWin emulator After selecting Apple //e config and COM6 in my case, you can check your Arduino COM port under the Arduino ide menu. After this i have loaded this PROTERM .dsk https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Tgl5-i83fvQB5L_MOWBXwpNQiqpFim5s/view?usp=sharing disk on AppleWin and made it start. How you can see from this video the leds on Arduino blinks in yellow for receive and transfer date. I hope this little experiment can be useful in future for other products like, who knows make communicate directly the emulator with a Floppy disk drive for the Apple ii, a modem etc.
