- Anybody know where I can find a good diskcopy utility for use
- with a single floppy drive? The old DOS diskcopy requires many
- swaps between the source and destination disks. The diskcopy
- utility built into file manager is better, but it still requires
- at least one extra swap between the disks. (Unless I just need
- to reconfigure something? About shows that I have enough memory
- to read everything.)
-
- My dream utility would copy a disk from the floppy, and store
- the information on hard disk, and then allow multiple copies
- to be made. It would be great if it kept a menu of available
- floppy disks previously stored on the hard disk with tools for
- deleting old versions.
-
- If I can't get that, then I would love a utility that reads the
- entire source disk and then prompts for the destination disk and
- writes the entire thing in one shot.
-
- Can anybody help out? (I would prefer email replies.)
-
- Thanks,
