FLCOPY(1M)  —  Unix Programmer’s Manual

NAME

flcopy − copy floppy disk

SYNOPSIS

flcopy

DESCRIPTION

Flcopy copies the console floppy disk (opened explicitly as /dev/floppy) to a file created in the current directory, named “floppy”, then prints the message “Change Floppy, hit return when done”.  After the operator complies, flcopy then copies the local file back out to the floppy disk. 

FILES

/dev/floppy
floppy (in current directory)

AUTHORS

Keith Sklower, Richard Tuck

BUGS

Floppy errors are handled ungracefully. 
There is no way to alter the name of the file created on the current directory.
