Copy makes a copy of a single file, or it copies a set of files to a different directory.
1. Copy all files in the current directory with extension ".x" to the directory "home$src". As each copy is made, the user is informed.
cl> copy *.x home$src ver+
2. Make a copy "fred.BAK" of the file "fred".
cl> copy fred fred.BAK
3. Copy the "graphcap" file from the remote node "lyra" to the current node, without changing the name of the file. Note that "." is a synonym for the current directory.
cl> copy lyra!dev$graphcap .
