The docs for WB-1.3.2 say:
;diskcopy
; h) MULTI keyword allows multiple copies of a single disk.
Bit it fails when I try it.

Since when is having 952K of chip RAM not enough memory to copy an 880K
disk? Why did it eat up 520 bytes of chip and 3920 bytes of fast RAM?
Has anyone else got it to work?
