You should only have to press Esc once in order to stop a Quick Copy or a Disk Copy in Disk Copy

Currently, you have to press Esc repeatedly in order to stop a Quick Copy or a Disk Copy in Disk Copy. You should only have to press Esc once in order to stop a Quick Copy or a Disk Copy in Disk Copy.

The copy_blocks routine calls bit KBDSTRB during the copy and checks for the key during that run of blocks, which is probably the cause. The strobe should only be cleared at the start of the copy.

Note that I can't repro the problem, so I can't verify a fix.

What size of disk are you copying, and when during the copy are you pressing Escape?

Also, please don't include extraneous information. Repeatedly stating "Quick Copy or a Disk Copy" makes your writing more difficult to understand.

This issue occurs intermittently when copying 140K disks, 800K disks and 32 MB volumes. This issue occurs a little more frequently than otherwise when copying the same disk or volume onto itself in the same slot and drive. I am pressing Esc at different points during the copy, mostly towards the beginning of the copy, though.

Still no luck reproducing here. Are you still using the GSPlus emulator? Running at Unlimited speed?

[c0mmander8]

I am still using the GSplus emulator. I am running at 2.8 MHz speed.

Does this still repro for you in the 1.2-alpha28 build?

This issue still reproduces for me in Apple II DeskTop 1.2 Alpha 28.

I still have not been able to reproduce this (GSplus, 2.8MHz, trying with 140k and 800k images). The closest I've come is that when using Disk Copy (not Quick Copy) to copy 800k images, there is a long pause during Formatting where everything is frozen - the mouse cursor won't move and the keyboard won't interrupt things. You can't interrupt the format with the Escape key, so it might seem like you have to press it multiple times before it responds.

Any further ideas on reproducing?

[c0mmander8]

Try 32 MB disk images in both Quick Copy and Disk Copy. I can repeatedly reproduce this bug, but only intermittently.

This bug still reproduces for me in Apple II DeskTop 1.2 Alpha 36.

Thanks; I was finally able to repro. Fix was easy.
