- ByteCopy v1.0 by Deniil 715!
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Made in 1999-06-24
-
- Intro
- ~~~~~
- This is a copy command which is used when copying big
- files from a disk with maxtransfer errors and not are
- able to set the maxtransfer to a functional value.
-
- This program reads on byte (buffered) at a time from
- the source and then writes chunks of 32kB to the
- destination (unbuffered).
- Maxtransfer errors often occours as distorted files,
- and often only on files bigger than 128kB.
-
- I use it for some PC-drives that I use at my work to
- transfer files from the PC (with fast internet) to
- my Amiga at home..
-
- NOTE: This program is not very fast because it only
- reads one byte at a time, but it seems to be the
- only way to get around the maxtransfer errors!
