ROBOCOPY.EXE halts with a "Runtime error R6002" (after a certain # files or dirs).So I decided to write my own version, in Perl. I'm striving to have the output be *identical* to Robocopy's output, so existing scripts will not break.

I have created a small web page and the initial file release. For further details, please see the README.TXT which is contained within klbcopy-0.30.tar.gz, and is also displayed on the web page.

Initial release.
Hi all, This is my first SourceForge project. I found a bug in ROBOCOPY.EXE which gave a "Runtime error R6002" after a certain # files or # dirs. I was moving from an old drive to a newer, larger drive. I did some searching but couldn't find a tool to replace Robocopy. So I decided to write my own. Currently I have only written the switches I needed to finish my migration. The rest need to be written. Anyone in an environment that uses Robocopy to move files around should be interested in this, as Robocopy is not enterprise-ready due to the runtime error condition. I hope to release a compiled version as well, so users won't need Perl on their machines -- just download a single .EXE and away they go. (They could even rename the KLBCopy.EXE to ROBOCOPY.EXE, and then wouldn't even have to change their existing scripts!) Thank you for your interest, KenB kenbeal@bigfoot.com
