up to 256 source and 256 destination disk directory entries in RAM is provided
for extra fast  copying.  Also, flexible command line option and configuration
control over many aspects of the  copy  process.   You can now specify up to 3
excluded filenames.   Has  two  new  options  plus  support  for wildcard user
numbers for hard disk backups.    Companion to  DD,  RENAMZ,  ERAZ and UNERAZ.
See ACOPY.HLP for details of operation.

 ACOPY Notes 

   a. Vs 3.3 updates (7/5/91, Terry Hazen):
      - Now fully respondent to state of QUIET flag.
      - Files with no datestamps are now properly treated  as  infinitely old,
        so any datestamped source files will automatically overwrite  (update)
        no-datestamped destination files when the 'U' option is specified.
      - 'U' option status messages have been expanded.
      - When a source file is  older  than  a  destination  file,  the  status
        message has been expanded to '- No Update (Source Older)'.   When both
        files have the same datestamp, the status message has been expanded to
        '- No Update (Same Date)'.
      - A new '(Updated)' status  message  is  now  displayed,  replacing  the
        normal '(Dated)' message,  when an existing  destination file is being
        overwritten (updated)  under  the  'U'  option.   The normal '(Dated)'
        message is displayed when no destination file exists.
