The Time Warp...

...to the 1980's.

My Dell TechKnow computer is misbehaving (after only a couple days of use; that's another
issue), so all that's working at the moment is the DOS command line.

To complete the 80's illusion, I am using the DOS command line to interact with the
floppy drive. :)

I'm copying my Python files to a floppy disk, which I should then be able to use on
another computer.

C:\>cd "PYTHON25\ALAN_S~1"
C:\PYTHON25\ALAN_S~1>dir

(lists files)

C:\PYTHON25\ALAN_S~1>copy filename.py A:\

(lather, rinse, repeat)

It's only a few hours worth of coding work that I did on that computer, but still...
