In most cases, you will be better off with Copy ][+ 8.3. (By the
way, you want to be sure that your Copy ][+ 9 is version 9.1. The earlier
version could really screw up catalogs.)
Having to type in the next application name upon an exit is pretty
dars user-unfriendly. Try typing in the prefix preceded and followed by a
"/" (e.g. /NARF/). Then, at the next prompt, type in the application name
(e.g. BASIC.SYSTEM).
The best way to exit from C2P-9 is to set up a few "Applications"--
for example, BASIC.SYSTEM of the boot disk, etc.. To exit you just select
one of your Applications entries.
