The xadmaster system unpacks COP archives. I should know, I wrote the client to do it.
xadundisk file1.cop DF0:
xadundisk file1.cop file1.adf
It's a lot easier than trying to use the original COP! tool, which is a GUI disk copier (with additional archiver facilities) written only in German.

thx deeply. I'll have a look. Though while waiting for your answer, I had a look at this COP file (Cult MD2 to name it) and it appears to be only a lot of XPK files. Once ripped off, unpacked and merged, it looks like a standard disk dump. hum ... anyway, thanks for your help again

Sylvain

It is a disk dump. Read the
source code of my client for the accurate, reverse engineered file format. There are also 4 compression methods that aren't XPK.

I have used cop to archive over 15000 disks during 1994 up to 1997. It was never meant to give the files to public.
have fun using the files

thanks to KYZ for the xad client
ps, ftp.amigascne.org will have a complete update very soon.
All cop files removed.
and over 10000 new demos, musicdisk, packs, diskmags, slideshows. All damaged archives
removed, like the LSD grapevine magazine disk images.
COP is a commercial product. Programmed by Armin Sander (TIP/TNM) Soundtracker, Oktalyzer.
COP was a part of "RAP TOP COP"
Archiver, disksalvage, and optimizer.
bye bye zeg
