Can someone tell me the CP/M command to copy a single
file or program
on my Kaypro from drive B: to drive A:
I do not want to copy the whole disk just a single file or two..
Thanks, Phil...
PIP A:=B:filename
Yes, the source comes AFTER the destination. Think of assignment statements
in programming languages.
You can use wildcards * and ? to specify the file on B:. They work the same
way as in DOS (unfortunately). If you specify one file on B:, you can give
it a different name on A: by adding the name before the equals sign.

Derek, Thanks for the help it worked perfectly.It does seem alittle backwards
though after using the DOS copy command for so long..
I actually looked up this command in the Kaypro manual, but did not find
anything, its very difficult to find anything in it, and also no pictures
either.. <Grin>!!
Maybe someone should write a book called "CP/M for Dummies" with lots of
Pictures and illustrations...
