The t-copy BASIC program copies data from one device to another.
t-copy source.device dest.device{(file.count}
| file.count | Specifies number of file segments to copy. Default is 1 file segment. For example, a file in t-dump format is written on tape as 1 file segment. A file-save or account-save on tape is written as 2 file segments, plus 1 file segment for each account. Therefore, to copy to the first account of a save, specify a file count of 3; to copy the first two accounts, specify a file count of 4; and so on. |

Copies the contents of device 0 to device 2, up to the third EOF mark. If device 0 contains data in save format, this copies the first account on tape.
t-copy 0 2 (3
Copies up to the first EOF mark (default file count is 1). In this case, if device 0 contains data in t-dump format, this copies the t-dump from device 0 to device 2.
