Internal Command
The COPY command copies a file or set of files to a specified destination:
another disk, another subdirectory on the current disk, or on a completely
different drive. COPY may also be used to alter the
filename within the
current directory. In addition, this command can be used to direct
communication between files and devices (for example, file contents to a
printer or keyboard input to a file).
Syntax
This command has several possible formats. The essential structure of
each command is
COPY source target option
The source is the copy from filename or device, and the target is the copy
to filename or device. Following are various configurations of the COPY
command format.
COPY [drive:][path]filename[/option] [drive:][path]filename[/option]
Where the first filename indicates the source file(s) to be copied, and the
second filename indicates the target area on which to copy.
COPY [drive:][path]filename[/option] + [drive:][path]filename[/option]
[drive:][path]filename[/option]
As shown, several source filenames may be listed to be copied into the
target filename that is listed last. The source files are concatenated into
the target file.
COPY [drive:][path]filename[/option] device
The target device is a console or printer (PRN).
