Abstract

A system (10) is provided for reproducing files (24) of software information. The system (10) includes an initialization file (20) identifying the files (24) of software information. A copying program (22) is defined by the initialization file (20). The copying program (22) is operable to present the files (24) of software information identified by the initialization file (20) to a user of the system (10) when the copying program (22) is run. A processor (12) is operable to access the initialization file (20) and the copying program (22). The processor (12) is further operable to run the copying program (22) so that the user of the system (10) may select for copying at least one file (24) of software information presented by the copying program (22). A copying device (18), connected to the processor (12), is operable to copy any file (24) of software information selected by the user onto a software storage medium (26).
