Super Disk Bonus

Antic SuperCopy

Effortless multi-file disk copying

program by BRYAN SCHAPPEL & BARRY KOLBE

This month's Super Disk-Only Bonus is one of the fastest and easiest multi-file disk copying programs ever published for the 8-bit Atari. Antic SuperCopy is entirely operated from menu selections and normally requires only five key presses.

When you are copying a lot of the files on a disk, Antic SuperCopy puts an end to tedious searching for correct wildcard filenames. This powerful program is written entirely in machine language. If Antic had printed it as a type-in BASIC loader, the listing would have consisted of approximately six pages of nothing but data statements.

Antic SuperCopy runs on all 8-bit Atari computers with at least 48K memory and a disk drive. This program was written by the Wisconsin team that created Antic Spelling Checker, our October 1987 machine language Super Disk Bonus.
