- Features:
-
- - Almost fully compatible with standard Copy command (the exception
- is that SCopy doesn't have the BUF=BUFFER option since SCopy
- does its own buffer allocation)
- - 3 different progress displays: Standard (dots), Percentage indicator
- and a complete Progress window (Suited for DirOpus, but looks good
- in CLI too)
- - Coded 100% in Assembler
- - Smart progress indicators. SCopy will try and update the progress
- indicators about once every second without sacrificing copy speed
- - The progress window also shows you the total amount of bytes of all
- files which still need to be copied in a progress bar
- - It is still smaller than the standard Copy command :-)
-
-
- System requirements:
-
- SCopy should run on any Amiga system with at least 512K RAM and
- one disk-drive. SCopy requires KickStart V2.04 or higher to run.
