COPY Command

I asked at Discord about it and it seems it's an issue of Xemu.

Maybe LGB-Z can write a few words about it?

Yes, some strange problem here. Honestly I don't find useful to have 2nd drive within an emulator (I manipulate disk images outside of the emulator, more easy and quick), so I've never tested scenarios like this before. Even the existence of the drive-9 in emulation should be thanked to a request from the ROM developer. Anyway, this is not an excuse to have bugs (as it's not excuse either that I don't find it useful anyway), just an explanation at max The hang of the COPY is not really a crash or freeze of the emulation, it's the ROM waiting for something (probably the change of an FDC register or so), which is probably not emulated properly by the emulator, thus poor ROM code just waits forever for the non-emulated (or badly emulated) event ... I need to investigate deeper in this one.

Well, you should update your emulator anyway (good practice, there were changes/fixes since then), but this time it won't help on this very issue, as I can reproduce this problem with the latest version as well.

On Discord the basic and closed-roms threads is mostly for the BASIC and the ROM itself. In this very case it's Xemu's fault, not the ROM's, as this functionality works on a real MEGA65. Thus it's more a topic for the Xemu channel on the MEGA65 discord, however since I've already know about this bug, you don't need to report it, at least.

Surely if you have question about the BASIC / ROM itself and not about this Xemu bug, you may want to go to those channels.

We will report this issue every day. Until the error is fixed.

Recently you've become quite evil, I must say .... Just to note, the amount of reports does not give more information thus has no effect on the fix

No worries, sometimes I like to tease a bit!

But that is always meant appreciatively and respectfully. Basically, I'm quite nice and do not bite!

And I would never harm the ingenious creator of the emulator, which I have been using daily for over two years now.

Hehe, do not take it too seriously what I've said, of course.

Okay, then we will report the COPY issue twice every day!

You really have too much time. Do you want some work? Like hmmm let me see ... fixing FDC emulation in Xemu

No problem! I'll do that quickly during my lunch break.

Of course! Removing unit 9 (who needs two of them?) solves all COPY problems.

I guess some needs to skip the lunch break today for other and legit reason (of course), so _unfortunately_ he can't do that because of not having a lunch break at all ....
