[comp.sys.cbm] 1581 copying problems

     I recently bought the 1581 disk drive and was excited about 
transfering my 5.25" disks onto 3.5" ones.  I came across 2 problems 
though:

     1) I am using a 1571 as the source and a 1581 as the destination 
	drive.  Looking at the "filecopy" program on the "1581 test/demo" 
	disk included with the new drive, I noticed a bug.   There is a 
	line that says:

        60 :if su<4 or su>31 or du<4 or du>31 or su=du then 10

        but line 10 does not exist.  

        I believe it should read "then 25" which is a jump to a subroutine 
	that restarts the program.

     2) Using the "uni-copy" program to transfer all my old speedscript
	files onto the 3.5" disk, the program seems to work fine.  But
	when I list the directory, the middle portion looks like:

	10 "lesson"       prg
	2  "captured"     prg
	0  "quest"       *prg
	2  "
	0
	0
	0
	17732 L
	1  "report"       prg
	17 "list"         prg

	The source file is 663 blocks long and the resulting destination
	file says that I have 2497 blocks free which is exactly:
	2160 - 663.

     Any and all suggestions would be much appreciated!

     Thanks,
