These
programs are explained in detail in the
TRANSIENT
COMMANDS
section
of this
manual. However, the basic command
to
move
all
files
from
the
A
drive
to
the B drive
would
be:
AXPROGRAM> B:=A:*.* [RETURN]
Substitute
the name of
the
program you choose for the (PROGRAM) indicated
above.
Replacement
Be
sure
to
replace frequently-used diskettes with fresh ones every six months.
Do
not wait until the old disk fails before you replace
it,
particularly
not
if
you do frequent copying
il:.Qm
the disk
to
your computer. One suggestion is
to
use
the
backup diskette, while still fairly fresh, as the
new
front-line diskette,
and
to
create
a fresh backup. This will minimize both the chance
of
diskette
failure and
the
cost of buying replacement diskettes.
The procedure
to
create
a backup diskette is:
1.
FORMAT
a blank diskette, or a diskette which does not contain important
information.
CAUTION
Do
l:i.O.X
format
the
VECTOR 4 CP/M System
diskette
or
any
other
diskette
containing desired information. Formatting completely erases a diskette.
2. DISKCOPY,
or
STORE,
the
entire
source
diskette
onto the formatted
target
diskette. (Note:
STORE
transfers only from
hard
disk
to
floppy
. diskette.)
3. PIP any additional files desired
to
the
target
diskette.
