Always more corrections...

Yes, AUTODISK does NOT, after all, refer to the RAMdisk by drive letter
(e.g. D:).  It writes to high RAM directly, so what TOS calls the fake drive
is irrelevant.  As for the time-setting part of AUTODISK - it is essentially
the same as that posted by Allan Pratt a while ago.  If there is enough
demand I'll post my version (independent of the disk-copying part).  If you
want to use AUTODISK but set the time via a different method (e.g. a
battery-run clock) put the software to do that into the AUTO folder before
you put AUTODISK there: AUTODISK skips setting the time if the time is
valid.
