Here are a few notes which you should read before you e-mail me about certain
apparent limitations:

MULTIPLE ITEM COPYING/MOVING:

· The multiple item copying routines have some limitations, particularly
  speed, due mainly to limitations of DOpus.  The main cause of this is that
  the internal DOpus "Copy","CopyAs","Move" and "MoveAs" commands only take
  one file or directory at a time.  So if you want to copy 40 files it will
  execute the "Copy" command 40 times.  I could use the c:copy command but
  then there would be no ability to move or rename files or abort the
  operation.  Therefore only internal commands can be used.

· Another result of this is that the internal DOpus replace requesters won't
  appear to function correctly.  This occurs when the destination file already
  exists and DOpus asks you whether you want to replace it.  Remember that the
  command is only acting on one item at a time so selecting these buttons will
  have the following effect:
    Replace      - as normal
    Replace All  - as "Replace", i.e. has no effect on subsequent files/dirs
    Skip         - as normal
    Skip All     - as "Skip"
    Version      - as normal
    Abort        - as "Skip"
  If you wish to abort then use the abort button on the progress requester
  which will stop after copying/moving the current file or directory.
  If anyone knows how to read the results of the replace requester in ARexx
  then please email me - it doesn't send anything to either RESULT or RC.  Note
  that I could only get the "Abort" button to work though - "Replace/Skip All"
  will never work properly until the internal commands are extended.

· ADVANCED USERS:  You can speed up the copy command a bit by removing the
  "wait" parameter from the following line (approx line 334):
    command wait dopcmd 'name=' srcfile 'to=' pastepath
  BUT!!
  This causes DOpus not to wait for the command to exit before continuing and
  will work fine unless a lot of destination files already exist in which case
  all the replace requesters will appear VERY quickly!!  I don't recommend you
  remove the "wait" unless you can live with this.  It will only speed it up
  considerably (maybe by 1/3) when copying lots of very small files or moving
  lots of files anyway.
  Note that getting rid of progress requesters has no noticeable impact on
  speed (and their removal will psychologically make it seem to take longer!)
  so don't bother!!

Don't e-mail me asking me to speed this up - e-mail GP Software
<greg@gpsoft.com.au> instead and ask for the ability to specify multiple files
with the internal DOpus commands!!


OTHER MATTERS:

COMMANDS MISSING FROM LISTER POP-UP MENUS?

There have been some users who have reported that the Cut'n'Paste commands are
not added to the lister pop-up menus.  If this happens to you then check the
following:
1. You are activating the pop-up menu from the window border with the right
   mouse button.  This menu should start with the commands "Iconify" and
   "Snapshot".  The commands are not added automatically to the lister command
   menu activated by left-clicking the down-arrow symbol.  (You can do this
   yourself though in the same way as adding the commands to toolbars.)
2. The ability to add commands to lister pop-up menus was added in version 5.66
   of Opus.  You can still use Cut'n'Paste if you have at least  Opus 5.5, but
   you will need to manually add the commands to
   your own lister toolbars or lister command menus.
3. If you have Magellan II then the add, paste, view and clear commands are
   missing from the pop-up menus if the clipboard is empty.  They should appear
   as soon as you "copy" or "cut" something.
4. If you are using a slow <030 Amiga take care that you are not being TOO
   quick - ARexx is a relatively slow programming system so in some cases you
   might be quicker than Cut'n'Paste!!  So give it a second and try again!

If you've tried all the above and are running Opus 5.66+ then try the
following:
1. Check again that RexxMast is running.
2. Open a DOpus CLI by going to the "Execute Command" item in the "Opus" menu
   and pressing the "CLI" button.
3. Type (without quotes) "Clip-About"
4. When you press return you should get Cut'n'Paste's "About" requester.
If you get "..........: Unknown command" then check you typed it correctly and
then report the problem to me.


FUNNY FILENAMES?:

With the help of others, I have tried to ensure that copying files with spaces
in their names to destinations with spaces in their paths will always work.
If you have any problems then please e-mail me the exact problem, i.e.
  Full path and filename of source item
  Full path of destination
  Whether you cut or copied the item
  Whether you were trying to rename it (by using "Paste As...")
    - did it orignally have spaces or does it have spaces in the new name?
  How you attempted to paste it (e.g. button? lister pop-up? paste into? through
    the "View" requesters (before or after a big window showing the contents
    appeared)?)

If you use dir/filenames with ',`,",*,(,),|,:,/,# in them then, rename them to
something sensible!!!!  Fortunately Cut'n'Paste will probably work anyway. :)
