1.0  FSCOPY V1(25)

FSCOPY is a fast dump mode disk to disk copy utility designed primarily  to
copy  an  entire  disk  pack,  after  a REFRESH of it had been done.  It is
capabile of copying the front end file system on KL10s and the boot  blocks
written by WTBOOT.

Note:  In some cases it may not be possible to copy the KL front  end  file
FE.SYS.   In  this case, a warning message is output, and this file must be
manually created.
