       _M_c_o_p_y copies the specified file	to  the	named	file,  or
       copies  multiple files to the named directory.  The source
       and target can be either MSDOS or Unix files.

       The use of a drive letter designation on the MSDOS  files,
       'a:'  for  example, determines the direction of the trans-
       fer.  A missing drive  designation  implies  a  Unix  file
       whose path starts in the current directory

       _M_c_o_p_y will allow the following command line options:

       tt      Text  file transfer.  _M_c_o_p_y will translate incoming
	      carriage return/line feeds to line feeds.

       nn      No warning.  _M_c_o_p_y will  not  warn  the  user  when
	      overwriting an existing file.

       vv      Verbose mode.

       mm      Preserve the file modification time.

       If  the	target	file already exists, and the _-_n option is
       not in effect, _m_c_o_p_y asks whether or not to overwrite  the
       file.

       MSDOS subdirectory names are supported with either the '/'
       or '\' separator.  The use of the '\' separator	or  wild-
       cards  will  require the names to be enclosed in quotes to
       protect them from the shell.

       The _m_c_d command may be used to establish	the  device  and
       the  current working directory (relative to MSDOS), other-
       wise the default is A:/.

       Unlike MSDOS, the destination directory may nnoott	be  omit-

       The '+' operator (append) from MSDOS is not supported.
