                            Extended Copy and Append

       This  program is freeware and may be freely distributed.   I  will
       not  be responsible for any damages that may occur as a result  of
       it's use.   If you discover any problems with this program  please
       feel free to contact me through GEnie, my address is J.SIEBEN.

       I wrote this program to serve two purposes:  to copy a file larger
       than  a  floppy disk to many floppy disks and to rebuild  it  from
       those  disks.   The program will do a regular file copy  as  well.
       This program will only allow you to copy one file at a time.

       Copying Files

       When  the program is executed you will be presented with the  Item
       Selector  to select the file you want to copy.   If you  have  TOS
       1.04 or greater the Item Selector will make use of the title line.
       The  program also supports the Little Green File Selector's  title
       box.   After  selecting  the source file the  Item  Selector  will
       appear  again  so  you  may  select  the  destination  path,   and
       optionally,  a different filename.   Before the procedure  begins,
       you  will be presented with a statistics alert box giving you  the
       filename  (of  the  source),   size,   free  disk  space  (of  the
       destination) and the drive letter.   You will also be prompted for
       what you want to do.   If the filename already exists you will  be
       prompted to choose if you want to append or overwrite the file.

       Copying to Floppy (Floppies)

       This  option  will let you copy from any drive other than  "A"  to
       drive "A".  If the file is bigger than the free space on drive "A"
       the  program will prompt you to insert another disk when the  disk
       is full.  It will continue to do this until the file is completely
       copied.   If the destination filename exists on these extra  disks
       it will be overwritten with NO WARNING.  It is assumed you will be
       using blank disks but you can use disks that are not.   This gives
       you the option to get some use out of that free space.

       Appending Files

       When you want to append to an existing file you should select  the
       append  option from the statistics alert box.   The  program  will
       append to the file if it will fit on the disk.  This will work for
       any  source and destination as long as they are not both on  drive
       "A".

       Technical Stuff

       The program is written in assembly using DevpacST.   I have  tried
       to make it as bug free and correct (proper programing  techniques)
       as  possible.   All  of it's disk access functions are  done  with
       GEMDOS.   The program uses 4342 bytes of memory when loaded.  When
       it  starts  to copy it will use (Malloc) all available  ram  minus
       16384  which  is left for the AES.   It uses two  Line-A  opcodes:
       $A009 Enable mouse cursor and $A00A Disable mouse cursor.

       Enjoy,
