COPY [-R] [-S] source1 [source2] ... [destination]
* COPY copies all source files or files in the source directories to the
destination directory. If the destination directory does not exist, it
will be created. If no destination is given (in this case you can specify
only one source file/dir ofcourse), the current directory will be taken.
* You can use wild cards to specify files.
* The filedate, filecomment and protection-bits are copied with it.
* With Option -R given, subdirectories and the files and
directories in there are also copied (recursive copying).
If you have the ALL FLAG set, you can use ALL as last
argument instead of -R.
* With Option -S given, it sorts. But who needs that ?
Note 1: Copying will be done in 50KBytes blocks. This should be a good
value. You can change it with CONFIG COPYSIZE .
Note 2: You can use option ALL instead of -R .
eg. copy c:dir df1:c
copy dir list type cd df1:c
copy -r df0:devs df1:devs
copy -r source:*.s ram:
copy df0: df1: {only copy the files in df0: to df1:}
* You can also copy a file to a file. This is like copying to a dir and
then renaming. Date, comment and bits are not copyied with it.
eg copy df0:fred ram:wilma
With that you can print a file etc.
eg. copy file PRT:
copy CON: barney
