- COPI is a replacement for the standard DOS COPY command.
- Its useage is the same (I hope), allowing the same wild cards,
- and defaults.
-
- COPI is intended to improve on the standard copy by
- checking the destination and if there is not enough room in
- the destination, allow you to modify the list of files
- selected by the source specification or to remove files from
- the destination to create room for the copied files.
-
- If there is enough space on the destination, there should
- be little difference between the DOS COPY and this COPI. If
- there isn't room on the destination, you will be presented
- with a menu of options.
-
- The first option on the menu is "Edit Source List". If
- you select this option, you can delete files seleted by your
- source specification from the to be copied list. For example,
- if you enter "COPI *.* A:" the list of files to be copied will
- include every file on your default path. Selecting "Edit
- Source List" allows you to view a list of all files selected
- and delete from that list (not from disk) files you may not
- care to copy.
-
- The second option is "Destination Disk Management". This
- option will allow you to view a list of files of the
- destination path and delete those files from disk (careful
- with this).
-
- The third option, "Enable Multiple Disk Destination",
- allows the copy to request fresh diskettes on the destination
- drive when the current diskette will not hold the next file to
- be copied. It will not split a file between diskettes and
- is only allowed for drives A: and B:.
-
- The fourth option, "Try Copy", will look at the disk
- requirements of the copy, and if there is enough space on the
- destination, proceed with the copy. If there is not enough
- space on the destination, the menu of options will be
- redisplayed.
-
- The fifth and final option, aborts the copy without doing
- anything, returning you to DOS.

- This version of the software has been tested by me for
- all the variations I ever use of COPY. If you find a bug,
- please let me know at the above address. If you think you
- have found a bug, please try the same options with the DOS
- COPY and be sure that it works there.
