[] Inside micro-C-Shell too, if I replace the floppy and say "cp a:\file ." (where '.' is the RAMdisk) it works fine, but if the first thing I do with the newly-inserted disk is "cp a:\folder\file ." it says "not found". I got used to typing "ls a:\" immediately after inserting a new floppy. Why is that? And also: when is that backslash needed? And why is it prohibited inside shell scripts in cases where it is possibly redundant but accepted from the keyboard? - Moshe Braner
