It was designed to support rsync and mirroring of directories. It can detect copying identicial files and avoids updating destination. This leaves the file date unchanged.Also, copy allows wild card (asterick) present in both the "from" and "to" file paths. This allows files to be renamed or selective files copied.The default state is to copy files, but if the -t,-s, or -c switches are used, thestate changes to non-forced. What's New in This Release: · The program now warns if wild cards (*) are used and not quoted. This caused continual problems for most users. · The code it was updated to use the latest AsmLib.
