Comment: Fast, powerful and flexible command line copier/mover with
automatic free space checking and progress indicators.
Description: CCopy is an advanced command line based file copier/mover that
completely replaces the normal copier. With over 30 different
options, CCopy is the most versatile and powerful copier in
the market today. Automatic free space checking and progress
indicators are the most obvious improvement, but others follow.
And one more thing: CCopy's almost 100% compatible with the
normal copier, so you don't need to learn everything from
scratch.
Information:
If you've tried 4dos you know what a difference a versatile copier can
make. But even 4dos with it's numerous optional functions is second to the
powerful versatility of CCopy. Entering masks and options has been made as
fast and convenient as possible, and over 30 distinctly different options
make CCopy the most powerful copier in the market.
Subdirectory copying is a routine job, but with CCopy you can actually run
complex commands with different file filters and other functions (like
splitting, optimizing, renaming, alerting, etc.) that enable versatility
never seen before.
If possible, CCopy will automatically move the files by renaming them, so
CCopy also replaces any move utilities you may have used. Other automatic
improvements are free space checking, progress indicators and easy
multi-disk support - when you run out of free space, just swap diskettes and
continue. Intelligent directory creation will make the MKDIR-command almost
useless and large data buffers guarantee a fast completion - faster than
most other copiers could ever hope for.
The easiest way to use CCopy is to copy the files CC.EXE and CC.DOC to
some directory that's included in your PATH-statement. Then all you have to
do is learn to type "CC" instead of "copy" every time you need to copy
something. To replace the move-command, create a batch file or 4dos alias
that will run "CC/M" every time you type "move". That's it, and CCopy's
ready to run.
The first few times may seem a bit confusing, but give CCopy a chance to
improve your working efficiency. After a few runs you will see the benefits.
Typing a plain "CC" will give you a *brief* help and a list of a few
options. "CC/?" will list all the options for you. If you want more
information on a specific option, append it after the question mark. Eg.
"CC/?S" will give help on the subdirectories-option. Remember, CC.DOC must
be in the same directory as CC.EXE for these help screens to work.
That's it, I suppose. Try it and use it! If you have any comments, please
