Hi From Stu. CCOPY.EXE V1.0 10/3/94 Backup file copy for OS/2 2.x and later. ========= by Stuart Mark. NYTI BBS (914-368-2819) CCOPY is handy little utility that we've seen tons of versions written for dos, and I'm sure there are tons for os/2 but I could find one so I wrote it. It simply copies files from one path to another if the date of the source file is newer than the destination. In this manner you can make incremental backups of data and source files. This is freeware, give it to everybody and make them use it. This program is not crippled in any way, I mean, there's not much to it to cripple. I hate crippled programs. If a program is really good, it's worth spending the money on and people will pay (stepping off the soapbox). Usage: CCOPY [/U] [drive:][path] [drive:][destpath] Wildcards are supported (basically whatever DosFindFirst will do). I tried to make it emulate the COPY command as much as possible in so far as leaving off the second parameter and things like that. In addition, if not specified, the program will tell you the paths it's copying to, so you can find out just a bit too late that your copying the wrong thing. There are two modes of operation that CCOPY will follow when copying files. If you do not specify the parameter /U, the source file will be copied if the destination file does not exist or has an older file date. If the /U parameter is specified, the source file will only be copied if the destination file exists and is older. In this manner you can perform incremental backups of only certain files without having to specify filenames. For example, if your floppy in drive A: has the files hello.c and hello.h and your c:\work directory has hello.c, hello.h, hello.obj and hello.exe, you can backup the c and h files by typing: CCOPY /u c:\work\* a:\ If c:\work is the current directory, the following will work as well. CCOPY /u * a:\ I'm really lousy at documentation as you can tell, so play with it and you'll figure it out. You could always call my board for the latest version and support and questions and whatever. Version Releases: 11/2/94 1.0 - Initial release. I'm sure it has bugs, but I haven't found any, if you find one call my board and post a message somewhere to that effect and I'll fix it. Suggestions are also welcome.
