Commodore 1581 - Copy Command

the copy must be on the same diskette, which means it must be given a
different name from the file copied. The source file and other files on
the diskette are not changed. Files must be closed before they can be
copied or concatenated.
FORMAT FOR THE COPY COMMAND
COPY [Ddrive#,] "old file name" TO [Ddrive#,] "new file name"
[,Udevice#]
Where both drive#s would be 0 if included.
CONCAT
The CONCAT command allows you to concatenate (combine)
two sequential files.
FORMAT FOR THE CONCAT COMMAND
CONCAT [Ddrive#,] "add file" TO [Ddrive#,] "master file"
[,Udevice#]
Where the optional drive# would be 0 in both cases. The old
"master file" is deleted and replaced with a new "master file" which is
the concatenation of the old "master file" and "add file".
-NOTE
The length of a command string (command and filenames)
is limited to 41 characters.
SCRATCH
The SCRATCH command allows you to erase unwanted programs
and files from your diskettes, and free up the space they occupied Jor
use by other files and programs. It can be used to erase either a single
file, or several files at once via pattern-matching.
FORMAT FOR THE SCRATCH COMMAND
SCRATCH "pattern" [,Ddrive#] [,Udevice#]
Where, "pattern" is any valid file name or pattern-matching
character.
