This is a program to copy any DOS or non-DOS disks under both DOS and
OS/2 (protected mode) as long as they have 512 bytes per sector and
40 or 80 tracks and 8-10 or 15-20 sectors and one or two sides.
Under OS/2 the program is restricted to 360k, 1.2M, 720k and 1.44M disks
(but also non-DOS disks with this formats like Unix disks).
Under OS/2, DISKACC.DLL is needed. Put it into a LIBPATH directory.
All the stuff about swapping directories (see help page) applies under
DOS only or if you run OS/2 with NOSWAP, NOMOVE and don't have enough
memory. Otherwise, virtual memory is used under OS/2. But you should
configure the options in TOOLS.INI anyway because COPYDISK prints an
error message if it does not find the options. Simply append COPYDISK.INI
to your TOOLS.INI file and modify it according to your system configuration.
Disks are copies as one piece, without additional disk changes like the
standard DISKCOPY programs of DOS and OS/2 do.
With the -m option, you are prompted if you want additional copies of
the same disk otherwise only one copy per disk is made.
This program can be copied freely but no one is allowed to sell it for money.
