Anyone having rouble with NSWP204? - regardless of what I do, I can't
copy a $r/o file! (not copy TO a $r/o file, copy a file with the $r/o flag set.)

I end up getting a BDOS error R/O file on the destination disk drive.
Is it me, my copy, or something else?

(p.s. Keith: all the old "bugs" still exist.)

Bob,

I have experienced the same effect, had to dig out SWEEP V4.0 to enable transfer,

What were the old "bugs

I tried copying R/O files with NSWP2.04.  Tried both the  'C' mode and
the 'M' mode after 'tagging'.  In both cases it worked fine -- no
bug apparent.  While I doubt that it makes any difference, I have
set the vales at the beginning of the program that highlight the
bits in the directory name that are set by R/O, SYS, or what have you.
(Correct 'vales' 2 lines above to read 'values').

I'm running standard CPM2.2 with ZCPR2.

FYI.
