Re: Transferring Files

[Rubywand <rubywand@swbell.net>]

     After downloading and installing v2.2.0, Cider Press did fine
transferring files from the ProDOS Zip disk to disk images,etc. on the PC
(running Win/Me).

     Being able to have two copies of CiderPress going is a nice feature.

     When it came to transferring files from .dsk images, .shk files, etc. to
the ProDOS Zip disk, the response was very glitchy. It looks like one or two
files made it; but, there was always an "ASPCI request failed" error and most
copies failed. Sometimes an empty file was written; usually, nothing got
written.

     Also noticed that the error leaves the Windows Clipboard full; but, will
not allow trying another copy-- you get a 'Can't Write to Clipboard' error
which seems to require closing CiderPress(es) and restarting the program(s).
After the ASPCI error, the user can avoid the problem by going to the
Clipboard window and doing a Delete to clear the contents.

     Perhaps the main problem is in dealing with parallell-interface Zip
Drives.
