[comp.sys.mac.system] APPLE: READ THIS. Re: 'Don't Copy' in System 7

I agree with Brian. I really don't like the fact that you can't allow
the system to NOT copy the files with the same name to another starage
device. Apple, PLEASE if you're reading this, try to incorporate it into
System 7 before releasing the final copy. Most of us with << 30meg HDs
would appreciate it.

While we're at it, it would be really nice if: when you were trying to
copy a file whose name was the same as one at the destination, and the
system complains, it gave the option to copy those name-conflicted
files that were newer than their similarly-named counterparts.

Just trying to make sure 7.0 never becomes stable,
