I am working on a number of improvements to Matt Dillion's Cshell which will address some problems. In the mean time the current shell uses a buffer for the copy command that is as the file or as large as memory will allow. Quite efficient. I have copied large files…

Cheath, I am the fellow who asked about DOS packets a while ago. Found out how to send/create them and got them to work. BUT when I tried to use the setdate action with the information in the 1.2 gamma1 autodocs all I get when the packet comes back is…
