[net.micro.pc] DOS: COPYTREE ? & a .BAT question

gold@infbs.UUCP (03/28/86)

Some DOS tools wanted...

Does anyone know whether programs COPYTREE and/or COMPTREE exist,
functioning like DISKCOPY and DISKCOMP for directory trees ?
They would make copying a whole directory and its subdirectories
from one device to another much easier. Perhaps somebody has written
a filter for the TREE command output.

Another question: how (if at all) can I make .BAT files execute faster?
Since there is no exit statement, a long jump to the end takes quite a
long time if the file is longer than a certain something. 

Thanks for all responses.

well, for your batch problem, try invoking a new copy of command.com
  when you run the .bat file. ( like this -- COMMAND.COM /C YOUR.BAT )

then the command EXIT will quit the shell your batch file is running in,
  and stop the batch job pronto.
