Notes for using PM Diskcopy
---------------------------
Normally the use of PM Diskcopy is very simple and you can call the
online help everywere at every time.
The only thing that may cause problems is the copying of disk with
different formats.
If for example you want to copy a 1,2MB 5.25" disk from drive B: to a
1,44MB 3.5" disk in drive A:, you have to turn on the "format target disk"
option.
So every time you want to copy disks with different format you have to
format the target disk.
