Hi there can some one help us?  We are trying to write a script that
copies files from a hard disk to floppies and we want to check to see
if the file will fit on the floppy before we try to copy it is there
an xcmd or xfcn that lets us check the amount of free space on a disk?
Also are there any file copying xcmds available? We have one but it
has some limitations and we were wondering if there are any others.
Please reply by email please to John_Mansfield@emal.sprl.umich.edu
Thanks very much.
