- Controlled Copy revision history
- --------------------------------
-
- Version 0.93: Enhancement
- ------------
- + unrecognized command line options now generate a warning error
- - /N (no copy) didn't work with /M (move), fixed
- - append warning rephrased
- + optimization (/O) now writes files in descending order of size, which
- gives better optimization - requires 5 bytes/file of additional memory
- and only works with one source mask
- + /M (move) and /A (append) are no longer accepted together for security
- reasons
- - now capable of creating more than one step of subdirectories
- - disk changes (when out of free space) resulted in a disk write error
- if CCopy had created a directory structure on the previous disk - fixed
- - manual updated
- + support for 4DOS's extra long command lines added - command line is read
- from enviroment variable CMDLINE, so using '@' in front of the command
- clears it and forces CCopy to use the conventional method (max. length
- 128 characters)
- + support for 4DOS include lists added - e.g. CC D:\TEMP\*.exe;*.com will
- copy all EXEs and COMs from that directory
- + support for 4DOS date and time ranges finally added
- + /Vx now accepts option 4 (/V4), which shows only one progress indicator
- and doesn't change lines between files - use with /T0 (/v4t0) to show
- progress during copy and still leave screen untouched afterwards
-
-
- Version 0.92: Expansion
- ------------
- - /I-option (ignore) removed
- + /O-option (optimization) added
- - copying to PRN and COMx didn't work properly, fixed
- + file mask recognition enhanced to 4dos level
- - fixed a bug that prevented /N-option from working
- + added contents list to documents
- + file transfer rates shown with more precision and in several
- different units when needed (kB/sec,B/sec,B/min)
- + added abort/retry prompts to file open errors
- + added size range support from 4DOS
- + when checking for free space CCopy now takes into account the files
- that will be overwritten
- + you can now abort copying from overwrite-prompts by pressing ESC,
- Ctrl-C or Ctrl-Break
- + exclude masks added, used in brackets (e.g: CC *.* [ *.zip] [*.arj] a:
- copies all files except .zips and .arjs
- + you can now have options and/or file masks in read from files by using
- the '@' character (e.g: CC @CCBACKUP.LST /Q)
- + added support for shared file access (under SHARE.EXE or OS/2)
- + extra spaces between brackets (exclude masks and selection ranges) are
- ignored, so they can be freely entered when needed (for 4DOS users)
-
-
- Version 0.91: Compatibility
- ------------
- - enviroment variable accepts options in lower case
- + overwrite prompt enhanced
- + Ctrl-Break handler installed
- - free space check disabled when copying to NUL, PRN or COMx
- + zap-option now retains files' attributes while non-zap-option (default)
- changes all read-only files into normal archive files
- - options must now be preceded by a slash (/), a dash (-) is no longer
- valid as a file name could also start with a dash
- + /V[-] option added to temporarily set or unset DOS verify flag (notice
- difference from /Vx option which sets viewing options (x={0,1,2,3}))
- - /Z-option (zap) is changed into /H (hidden), the effect is identical
- but the change is made to improve compatibility with 4DOS
- + you can now use plus-signs (+) between file names to append them
- together like in MS- and 4dos copiers
- + console can be used as a source mask (CC CON file.ext) to activate
- the new enhanced console interface which allows you to write ANY
- characters to the destination
- + default read/write block size raised to 48kB to improve performance
- (about 15% increase)
- + "No files found" message improved and corrected
