Bridger - You have raised an interesting question.  I have never used
random CP/M files with "holes", but I have read about them.  I think I 
agree with your position on what should be copied.  I wonder, however,
how CP/M treats such a file if you ask the CCP to TYPE it.  What goes to
the screen - just the written sectors, written sectors with intervening
garbage, or what?  And if just the written sectors are displayed, in what
order do you see them?
