    Unhappy fd copy

    This is the program which creates the image of FDD.
    I want to change the program which copies the specified file.
    And lose the start function after pushing key.
    Where should I modify?
    (ex;
    a:\>dir
    A.txt
    B.txt
    program.exe
    a:\>program.exe A.txt(enter) <- Copy start
    end
    )
    I am sorry to be an elementary question.

    How about posting your #include files and I'll see if I can get it to work.

    Can you rephrase your question please, I'm not sure I understand what you want.

    Thank you for reply!

    This program creates the image of FDD.
    So change the program which copies the specified file in FDD .

    -----------
    ex DOS command.
    A:>dir
    A:>A.txt
    B.txt
    C.txt
    C:test>program.exe a:\A.txt(enter)
    C:test>dir
    C:test>program.exe
    A.txt <- copy was made.
    -----------
    Please modify it as mentioned above.
    The display of "press <ENTER>..." is not needed.

    I am sorry to be poor at the explanation.

    So, do you just want to remove the section of code that asks the user to "Insert source diskette and press <ENTER>" ?

    If so, a simple fix would be to do the following:

    - Replace these lines of code:
    >printf("\nInsert source diskette and press <ENTER>... ");
    >i = getch();
    >printf("\n");

    with this one
    >i = ENTER;

    So it now looks like:
    Code:
    int read_disk(int drive, FILE *fp)
    {
        int i, error, size;
        int track, cyl, sec, head;
    
        error = FALSE;
        i = ENTER;
        if (i == ENTER)
        {
            i = get_drive_parameter(drive, fp);
    .....
    .....
    Alternatively (and preferably), you could remove the if statement that checks the value of i against ENTER as this is no longer required.

    If this hasn't helped.... ask again.
    When all else fails, read the instructions.

    I haven't seen Engrish in awhile.

    Please speak your intentions so we may be of assistance to yourself.
    The world is waiting. I must leave you now.

    I am studying a C program and English...

    >So, do you just want to remove the section of code that asks the user to "Insert source diskette and press <ENTER>" ?

    I want to lose action of "press <ENTER>".
    Copy is started immediately when the file in FDD is specified.

    I modifyed the 80 to 82th line as follows.
    -----------
    int read_disk(int drive, FILE *fp)
    {
    int i, error, size;
    int track, cyl, sec, head;

    error = FALSE;
    i = ENTER;
    if (i == ENTER)
    {
    i = get_drive_parameter(drive, fp);
    ------------

    And execution.
    -----------
    C:>program.exe a:\A.txt(enter)
    Insert source diskette and press <ENTER>... <- copy of a file does not start.
    -----------
    Where is wrong?
    Is it short of my modification??

    Are you sure you recompile worked OK? If you have removed that text from your program, how can it still be outputing it?

    This program creates the image of FDD and lose action of "press <ENTER>".
    But my demand is the program which specifies and copies a file.
    I want to specify not the whole of FDD but a file.

    OK, I'm not sure if this will help you or not.... I have written this copy program for you to have a look at.

    It allows you to run it in any of the following ways:
    >mycopy a:\myfile.txt
    - This will copy to the current working directory, with filename of myfile.txt
    >mycopy a:\myfile.txt mynewfile.txt
    - This will copy to the current working directory, with filename of mynewfile.txt
    >mycopy a:\myfile.txt c:\mydir\mynewfile.txt
    - This will copy to the directory c:\mydir, with filename of mynewfile.txt

    It assumes you are using DOS style filenames (ie backslashes).

    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <string.h>
    
    #define MAXL_NAME 128
    
    char *MakeFileName(char *, char *);
    
    int main(int argc, char *argv[])
    {
    	FILE *ifp, *ofp;
    	char fromfile[MAXL_NAME], tofile[MAXL_NAME];
    	int c;
    	
    	switch (argc)
    	{
    		case 2:
    			strncpy(fromfile, argv[1], sizeof (fromfile));
    			if (MakeFileName(fromfile, tofile) == NULL)
    			{
    				printf ("Cannot set second filename\n");
    				return (EXIT_FAILURE);
    			}
    				
    			break;
    		case 3:
    			strncpy(fromfile, argv[1], sizeof (fromfile));
    			strncpy(tofile, argv[2], sizeof (tofile));
    			break;
    		default:
    			printf ("No filename specified\n"); 
    			return (EXIT_FAILURE);
    			break;
    	}
    	
    	fromfile[MAXL_NAME-1] = '\0';
    	tofile[MAXL_NAME-1] = '\0';
    	
    	if ((ifp = fopen(fromfile, "rb")) == NULL)
    	{
    		perror (fromfile);
    		return (EXIT_FAILURE);
    	}
    	
    	if ((ofp = fopen(tofile, "wb")) == NULL)
    	{
    		perror (tofile);
    		return (EXIT_FAILURE);
    	}
    
    	printf ("Copy from %s to %s\n", fromfile, tofile);
    		
    	while ((c = fgetc(ifp)) != EOF && fputc(c, ofp) != EOF);
    	
    	if (ferror(ifp))
    		perror(fromfile);
    	if (ferror(ofp))
    		perror(tofile);
    	
    	printf ("Complete\n");
    	
    	fclose (ifp);
    	fclose (ofp);
    	return EXIT_SUCCESS;
    }
    
    char *MakeFileName(char *in, char *out)
    {
    	/*
    	 * This function takes a fully qualified filename (in) and 
    	 * copies only the non-qualified name to out.
    	 * Allow for two types of filename:
    	 *   c:\mydir\myfile.txt
    	 *   c:myfile.txt
    	 * In either case the out variable will contain myfile.txt
    	 * On success a pointer to out is return,
    	 * on failure NULL is returned.
    	 */
    	 
    	char *p;
    	
    	if (in == NULL || out == NULL)
    		return (NULL);
    	
    	if ((p = strrchr(in, '\\\')) == NULL)
    		if ((p = strrchr(in, ':')) == NULL)
    			return (NULL);
    
    	/* Ensure that the slash or colon wasn't the 
    	 * last character in the string
    	 */
    	if (++p)
    		strcpy (out, p);
    	else return (NULL);
    	
    	return (out);
    }
    If this isn't what you want, can you rephrase your question please.

    Have fun

    Your welcome.....

    A quick English lesson for you.. the word "demand" means you want it NOW, and is not very friendly. Words to use instead would be
    - But my request is a program which specifies and copies...
    - I am asking for...
    - I would like to know...
    I understand your use of the word demand, but others may not.

    Have fun, and come back again when you have more problems.
    When all else fails, read the instructions.
