Re: Saving to USB drives from VDOS



Paul,
Is it possible to use WX, which you brought our attention to recently, to save the current XY4 file in VDOS to a USB drive that is only accessible in the host -- in this case Windows 7 64 bit?
It should work. If you're editing file d:\path\myfile.txt and your
removeable drive is K:, the command would be:

WX copy/y d:\path\myfile.txt K:\
If you don't want the command output echoed back into XyWrite, change "WX" to "WY".

To pare this down to essentials, the native command would be:

dos/nv/x/z /c cmd.exe /c copy/y d:\path\myfile.txt k:\

Hope this helps.
