{{COPY command}}



	Copy one or several files to another location.



{{Synopsis}}



${COPY [/-Y | /Y] [/R] [/A[:]attributes] source [+] [...] destination}



	Copy one or several files to another location.



	- {/-Y} : Prompt the user for confirmation.



	- {/Y} : Do not prompt the user for confirmation.



	- {source} : The path of files to be copied (can include

	{spec/regexp|regular expressions}). By using the {+} sign between

	at least two paths, the behaviour of {COPY} will be affected as

	follows: instead of trying to copy {source} into {destination},

	the files referred to by {source} will be concatenated in {destination}.



	- {destination} : The path of the new files to be created (can not

	include {spec/regexp|regular expression}).



	@- {destination} is considered to be the path of the destination files,

	unless,



		-- {destination} refers to a folder;



		-- {destination} ends with {/} or {\\};



	@- In any of the previous cases, {destination} is considered to be the

	folder where files referred to by {source} must be copied. Thus files

	resulting from copy will keep their original names. If neither of

	these conditions are met nor is the {/R} mode set, and {source} refers

	to multiple files, then the files will be concatenated inside {destination}.



	- {/R} : Turn on recursive mode. This mode allow copying a complete

	tree. If {sources} refers to various tree, then the tree will be merged

	in the {destination} folder. If {source} is a {spec/regexp|regular

	expression}, then the static part of the regular expression will be

	removed from files absolute path to produce relative path in

	{destination} folder.



	@- As an example, if {source} is {path/to/folder/*.*} then the file

	{path/to/folder/my/file} will be copied to {destination}/{my/file}.



	- {/A[:]attributes} : Copies only files that match {attributes}. For

	more details, check {spec/attr|files attributes}.



{{Compatibility}}



	Available since version {0.4}.



	Partially compatible with {cmd.exe}. Some {cmd.exe} are ignored

	because they do not make sense anymore. The {/A} switch is a

	{dos9|Dos9} extension.
