Thanks to the folks who replied to my question.

Briefly it was: Given a pc configured with a floppy drive (a:) and a
hard disk drive (c:), how can I selectively copy files from one floppy
to another w/o routing them via the hard disk?

Answer: Use the command "copy a:filename b:" where "filename" matches
one or more files you want to transfer. Even though there is no physical
(b:) drive, there is a logical one. Drive (a:) serves as both.

You are prompted to insert the diskette for drive a: or b: at the
appropriate times. You will have to exchange diskettes at least once for
each file copied. Appears that at most 64k of a file can be read into
memory before a write is required, thus sometimes more than one
exchange is required.

As expected, the "a:" or "b:" can be omitted if you have made one of
them your default drive.
