Saving Programs to a Floppy Disk.

Hey there. I was wondering how do I save programs to a Floppy Disk?

I've tried a lot of things and I've searched Google and the wiki. (Also how do I Save stuff from a Floppy Disk to a Computer/Turtle?

To save a file to a floppy disk you have a couple options:

- You could just run 'edit disk/filename' and write your code that way
- You could run 'copy filename disk/filename'
- You could run 'move filename disk/filename'

As for moving from a disk to a computer you could do the same things but mixing up the directories:


- You could run 'copy disk/filename filename'
- You could run 'move disk/filename filename'

And for the turtle I believe that you could do the same things as the first list I suggested.

Hope I helped! :)/>/>

Perfect. 1+'d your post. Thanks.

How do you get the name of the disc?

If you'd want to quickly backup all your programs onto a disk then you could do this

for _, file in ipairs(fs.list("/")) do -- Gets the files in the default folder
  fs.copy(file,"disk/"..file) --Copies the files
end

never mind what I said earlier, I've got the hang of it now! P.S. Turtles and Herobrine do not mix!
