Version 9.1 was released and is not buggy, (yes, 9.0 was...), however,
version 9.1 does have some limitations, (primarity due to it being 8
bit s/w vs. 16 bit.)  The 9.1 version isn't able to to some things
(related to GS/OS system files or files with resource forks.)  HOWEVER,
it will not screw things up, it will only come back and tell you what
it can't do.

The power of what 9.1 can do makes it a very nice utility.  I use it
constaintly on my //e, (and occasionally on my IIgs) as a program launcher
(added in 9.0 and) and for gen. file manipulation.

I believe it is still availible in most mail-order houses.  Last I checked
Q.C. had it.

Oh yes, I have no direct connection to Copy ][+, but I was I beta tester
for versions 9.0 and 9.1.

Perhaps you should consider your own advice?  ;)
