NAME
flcopy - floppy copy
SYNOPSIS
flcopy [ -hr ] [ -f file ] [ -t ntracks ]
DESCRIPTION
Flcopy copies the console floppy disk (``/dev/floppy'') to a file in the current directory, named ``floppy''. The user is then prompted to change the floppy, and enter a carriage return when done. When a carriage return is entered, flcopy copies the file out to the floppy disk.

The options are as follows:

-f Use file instead of ``/dev/floppy''.

-h Cause flcopy to copy a file named ``floppy'' in the current directory to the console floppy disk.

-r Cause flcopy to copy the floppy to the current directory and then quit.

-t Copy only the first ntracks tracks.

FILES
