The mtools utilities work fine as long as the file fits on a single diskette. I understand DOS copy has the same limitation, but we have customers that create multi-megabyte files then want to transfer by diskette to a DOS machine. Is there any public domain utilities that can handle this? Maybe a DOS version of cpio perhaps. Any help would be greatly appreciated and said appreciation is renewable for a small annual fee :-). -- Richard A.
