Is there a software (preferably freeware) program you like that can copy
certain folders to another drive on command?

I would make a batch file, but that's hard with the long filenames involved.

You can use the short names, and the long ones should follow. You
can also use xxcopy, found at <http://www.xxcopy.com>

If you're just making backups, why not ZIP them? It can recurse directories
and will handle long names.
