SAFECOPY - Safe File Copy 1.4
This utility copies one or more files to a new location, provided that the
same or newer versions of the files do not already exist there. It works
just like the COPY command except that it will never overwrite a later
version of a file with an earlier one.
USAGE:
SAFECOPY [sourcedir]sourcefiles [[targetdir][targetfiles]] [options]
where: sourcedir is the location of the existing files, or the current
directory if blank
sourcefiles is the file to be copied, wildcards are accepted to
specify multiple files
targetdir is the destination location for the copied files, or
the same directory if blank
targetfiles is the new file name or names for the copied files,
wildcards are allowed for partial renaming of multiple
files, or blank if the names are to remain the same
options is any of the following:
/P pause to ask before overwriting each file
/Y yes, go ahead and overwrite without asking
Both the source directory and target directory must exist.
EXAMPLES:
SAFECOPY MYFILE.TXT *.DOC will copy MYFILE.TXT from the current
directory to MYFILE.DOC in the same
directory
SAFECOPY *.TXT *.DOC will copy all .TXT files from the current
directory to *.TXX in the same directory
SAFECOPY \DIR1 \DIR2 will copy all files from the \DIR1
directory to the \DIR2 directory
SAFECOPY C:\DIR1 A:\ will copy all files from the \DIR1 directory
on drive C: to the root directory on A:
Run SAFECOPY with no parameters or "?" or "/?" to display simple help and
registration information.
