VECTOR GRAPHIC, INC.
This will copy
all
files
with
names of seven
letters
or
less.
If
you plan
to
use the STORE/RESTORE programs on a regular basis, bear this in mind.
To
indicate
that
the
portion of a file (called
SAMPLE.DOC
for this example)
stored
on
a given diskette is the only or final portion
of
the
entire
file,
the
STORE
program adds a $
to
the name. '
When
one
diskette
is filled, the program will prompt you
to
insert another.
If
a file cresses over several diskettes,
it
will
be
stored
as SAMPLEO.DOC on
the
first
diskette,
SAMPLE1.DOC on
the
second,
and so forth. The final
section
will
be
called
SAMPLE$.DOC.
Be
sure
to
use
formatted
diskettes, and
to
number each diskette as you take
it
out of the
drive.
Numbering
is
essential
for
use
in
the
next
program,
RESTORE.
The.
RESTORE
Command
V-22
This program returns the files put
on
diskette by the
STORE
program
to
hard
disk.
You
cannot use
RESTORE
to
put
files
on
hard disk,
if
they were put on
the
floppy by
the
DISKCOPY
or PIP programs.
All
the information described
above for the
STORE
program holds
true
for RESTORE as well,
except
that
the
action is in reverse.
Be
sure
to
enter
diskettes
in
the
correct
order. Once
RESTORE
has begun
copying
files,
it
will ask you
for
new
diskettes
as
it
needs
them and copy
each
incomplete
file
in
the
order
in which they
were
put
on
diskette.
Therefore
it
is essential not
to
enter
Part
2 before
Part
1
of
the same file.
Recall
that
the
programs keep track of this by copying each partial
fUe
with
a number
at
the end of
its
filename. Since the computer counts
starting
with
0, you will need
to
enter the
RESTORE
command
as follows.
If
you want
to
RESTORE
the file
SAMPLE.DOC
to
your hard disk, you would
insert the
first
of your diskettes and enter the command:
A)
RESTORE Ar-C:SAMPLEJ).DQC
[RETURN]
This would begin the restoration of
the
entire file
SAMPLE.DOC.
The
RESTORE
program will prompt you when
it
has finished with all matching
files
on
that
diskette with the line:
INSERT NEXT
DISK
TO
CONTINUE OR [CTllL C]
TO
EXIT
A t this time, you can stop the program
by
entering [CTRL C].
