A ONE PASS DISKCOPY
Hallelujah! No more DOS-E-DOE shuffle! Yes, I have made
fun of the DOS DISKCOPY command for years. Shucks. Now
I'll have to poke fun at them in other areas. Finally,
with DOS 6.2, you can copy a diskette and will not have
to constantly switch between the source and destination
drives! The entire business happens automatically. You
won't even have to think about it. DOS now uses a little
of your hard drive space to store the information.
However, for making multiple copies of a single disk, the
shareware program called COPYQM is still much better.
For more on how to use the DISKCOPY command, see pages 70
- 73 in Learning DOS for the Complete Novice, 2nd
Edition. Check out the TIP on page 73 that shows how you
may be able to copy a disk that won't DISKCOPY.
