If you try to BLOAD to reserved strange things can happen which may result in wiping out you disk from which you load the the program. Another problem appears to occur with PROSEL's copy. Glen apparently uses block read and writes to disk. This goes through cache I beleave and it is possible that part of the copy may not reach it's destination. Matt D. may want to comment on this more. I my self have been unable to do copies of multiple icons selected with a shift finder starts to copy but bombs on the second file with an error which escapes me at the moment. Anyone else seen this.
