Odd Bug in SDX with PCLINK

[TGB1718]

I was trying to copy files I had backed up in Altirra to my 800 (Incognito)

I had D3: in Respeqt as PCL3:

so changed directory to PLC3\D5      ; D5 is a backup of partition 5

DPCL3:\D5>COPY /B /R *.* D5:\

 

It starts to copy the files as expected but as soon as it hits a directory (BASIC):-

BASIC>

150 Path not found

DPCL1:\D5>

 

I checked I had the latest Incognito/SDX installed, so I did the same thing on my 130XE U1M/SIDE3

and it failed in the same way as soon as it hit the BASIC directory.

I thought it might be something to do with Respeqt so I tried in Altirra (PCL1:)

DPCL1:\D5>COPY /B /R *.* D5:\
BASIC>

150 Path not found

DPCL1:\D5>

exactly the same.

 

However if I change directory to D5: and type

COPY /B /R PCL3:\D5\*.* D5:

 

It works

There are bugs in the SDX COPY /R command with device names longer than one character:

Thank you @phaeron , at least even with the bug, you can copy using the last method I used.

I don't remember it showing as DPCL3 but rather PCL3

could that also be an issue?

oddly all other devices stay at 3 plus 1    dskx etc. but d is concatenated to pclx this seems like a mistake as it's 4 char plus 1 instead of 3 plus 1

add that with the copy command bug chopping off 1 or 2 and... well, not great...
