Re: New IIgs Owner Needs Help Copying Disks

[artman@allegan.net (Artman26)]

I, too, have a similar problem. I have a number of commercial versions
of IIGS software that I would like to back-up. I've seen too many disk
based programs go belly-up over the years and would feel much better
working with a backup. I have version 9 of Copy II plus but it's
parameter copy section doesn't work any more. Any ideas on how I can
get a working copy of version 9? I have the original (but not fully
working) one.
Thanks, 
Mike
