I've run into an unusual program with my WIN1_ (a QXL.WIN) which I have been unable to resolve. DIR WIN1_ gives 84847/1048560 sectors, it's a 512MB QXL.WIN, with 11,716 files on it. Despite reporting 84847 sectors free it says Drive Full. Deleting one file will let me save one file

The 'cp' port is provided as one of the extra utilities with the c68 package. I used it a number of times to recover all available files from a corrupt QXL.WIN package. As I was testing software that used direct sector access to WIN drives, corruption was a bit more frequent than I would have
