DISK' function begins at the point where you are asked
to
enter a new disk name for
formatting.
Whether you answer Yes or No
to
the formatting question, the Shell checks the
available space on the copy disk against the total size of the selected file(s).
If
the copy
disk can't hold all the files, a warning
is
displayed and you can press the STOP key
to
cancel the function or press the SPACE BAR
to
continue.
NOTE: For any type
of
file
copy, if the next
file
to
be copied won't
fit
onto the
copy disk, the following message
is
displayed: 'COPY DISK
FULL-ANOTHER
DISK: Y
N'.
If
the answer
is
No (the default answer), the copy
is
terminated.
If
Yes, the function returns
to
the 'INSERT COPY DISK' message.
Single Drive Copy
After you answer the 'OK TO COPY' question, the following warning
is
displayed
on the screen: 'PROGRAMS
IN
MEMORY WILL BE DESTROYED,' along with the
instruction 'PRESS SPACE TO CONTINUE'. Press the
F5
or STOP keys
to
cancel the
function and retain any program in memory.
You will alternately insert the original disk and the copy disk according
to
prompts
on the screen.
It
takes from one
to
four disk swaps
to
complete the copy.
The first time the copy disk
is
inserted, the 'WANT TO FORMAT THE COPY
DISK: N Y' message
is
displayed (unless, however, the copy disk has never been
formatted, in which case the Shell automatically does it without asking you). Again,
whether the answer
is
Yes or No, the Shell checks the available space on the copy disk
against the total size
of
the file(s)
to
be copied and alerts
you
if there isn't enough room on
the copy disk.
DELETE FILES
This function erases one or more files. Use the CRSR keys and SPACE BAR
to
select the file(s) from the
file
list displayed on the screen. Press the
F7
key when you've
completed file selection. The Shell then asks you if it
is
"OK
TO DELETE FILE-LIST:
N
Y".
If
you answer Yes, the function continues.
If
you answer No (the default
answer), the Shell returns
to
file
selection with all previous selections intact.
Press the
F5
key
to
restart
file
selection with all previous selections cancelled.
Press the STOP key
to
cancel the function and return
to
the primary menu.
RESTORE FILES
This function restores one or more files that have been deleted. A
file
list
of
only
deleted files
is
displayed on the screen and you again use the the CRSR keys and SPACE
BAR
to
select the file(s)
to
be restored.
After you select a file, the Shell checks
to
see if
it
can be restored without corrupting
other files.
If
not, the message 'CANNOT RESTORE FILE:
file
name id'
is
displayed.
If
everything's OK, the
file
selection continues.
