how to copy files?

[Klaus Major]

Hi Niklas,

Actually, if I'm not mistaken, "clone" is for objects inside the stack. I
have
had some succes with the "put URL" command.
Try this...

put URL "file:C:/myFile.txt" into "file:C:/myCopiedFile.txt"

thanks,

please note that script above copies only in textmode !
Ideal for plain text-files.

To copy all other types of files use:

put URL "binfile:C:/myFile.jpg" into "binfile:C:/myCopiedFile.jpg"


On a Mac it is a bit more complex because of the "Type" and 
"Creator"-Code
needed by the OS. (To correctly handle doubleclicks on that file etc...)

Please drop a note if you would like to know the "mac-way", too :-)
