VMS Help COPY, Parameters *Conan The Librarian |
input-filespec[,...]
Specifies the name of an existing file to be copied. The asterisk
(*) and the percent sign (%) wildcard characters are allowed.
If you do not specify the device or directory, the COPY command
uses your current default device and directory. If you specify
more than one file, separate the file specifications with either
commas (,) or plus signs (+).
output-filespec
Specifies the name of the output file into which the input is
copied.
You must specify at least one field in the output file
specification. If you do not specify the device or directory, the
COPY command uses your current default device and directory. The
COPY command replaces any other missing fields (file name, file
type, version number) with the corresponding field of the input
file specification. If you specify more than one input file, the
COPY command generally uses the fields from the first input file
to determine any missing fields in the output file.
You can use the asterisk (*) wildcard character in place of
any two of the following: the file name, the file type, or the
version number. The COPY command uses the corresponding field in
the related input file to name the output file.
