Hi Johnson, simple answer:
COPY is so simple that it is part of FreeCOM shell. For XCOPY, you need to have the XCOPY file installed. So COPY is for use on a boot floppy where you probably do not have XCOPY.
By the way Jim: Somebody asked why we have TWO XCOPY in the LSM list. I think we can remove the older version, just as you have just removed the older MODE version when you replaced it by the new MODE.
Hmm... I didn't remember that we had 2 XCOPY's. It's been so long, I don't remember why we have two of them. It's possible that the "replacement" wasn't complete, or was buggy/unstable.
Anyone else on the list remember why we have 2 XCOPY's?
More importantly, which one is better? More features? Less bugs?
