The utility F I LEe 0 P Y allows you to copy files from one disc to another using a
single drive. It copes with disc changing and gives full instructions on the screen. If a
wild-card filename is specified then F I LEe 0 P Y asks you to confirm that you indeed
wish to copy each file on an individual basis. The program informs you of each
filename as each file is copied.
