[Coco] Best way to copy a large number of OS9 files to/from hard drive or network drive.

[tfadden]

A few things I have run into. What are you writing from/to?  hard drive 
to hard drive? Hard drive to drive wire?  I had problems with hard drive 
to drive wire using a long serial cable.  When I went to a 2 foot serial 
cable then a usb to serial adapter with a usb extension cable, the 
problems went away.
Another thing you could try is using tar and writing the output to where 
ever you  want it put.

Also I never use a script, but redirect the dsave output to a shell.
