Copy Manual page 117
F5, Shift+F5
The Copy command allows you to copy files. There are three
ways you can use this command:
. You can copy the file under the cursor bar in a file
panel.
. You can copy a group of files that you've marked with
the Ins key or Select group and Unselect group.
. Advanced users: You can type in the name of the file
to copy (or a group of files if you use DOS wildcard
characters). Press Shift + F5 or hold down Shift when
you select Copy from the Files menu.
Pressing F5 (or selecting Copy) brings up a dialog box like:
+--------------------- Copy ---------------------+
| Copy "somefile.ext" to |
| _ |
-------------------------------------------------|
| [ Copy ] [ F10 - Tree ] [ Cancel ] |
+------------------------------------------------+
There are three ways you can select where to copy the file(s)
to:
. Type the name of the directory where you want to copy
the file to (or the name of a new file if you're
copying one file).
. Press F10 to bring up a pop-up directory tree of the
current disk and select a directory from this tree.
. Set up the Commander so there are two file panels,
with the inactive panel showing the directory to which
you want to copy the files.
Canceling Copy:
Press Esc at any time to stop copying files.
Note: You'll be asked for confirmation before existing
files are overwritten.
