Bill,

There should be documentation for Toolshed somewhere. It is in the source code 
at Sourceforge. In any case, you probably are running into end of line 
translation problems and perhaps syntax problems.

The example given in the docs for COPY show the following as the needed syntax 
for your attempt above.

os9 copy -l test.txt work.dsk,test

Try this and post your results.
