   ! Fixed to use plain copy command in DOS. Previous xcopy solution
     returned with the dumb 'is it a file or dir?' message.
'copy' seems to overwrite existing target so no need to mess with
     /Y switch, but it may be that I'm overlooking something.


Hi Francesco,

Is it possible to override xcopy command with an our harbour copy utility ? I did, not already with all option emulated from xcopy, a filecopy utility for mine system administration. In this case we can make what we need without using external copy or xcopy command. What do you think ?

The problem is that we need to use copy before having
built anything. We could shuffle build order, but even in
this case this could only work if our own copy tools would
be the first target and it wouldn't depend on any other Harbour
libs. For me this looks a bit too complicated if we consider
it's only to workaround MS-DOS shortcomings. But, if there is
no better method (like some batch trick) and current ugly
hack turns out to be not enough, this could be a solution.

Another one is to copy some free copy tools for lacking
platforms (DOS) and use that. Just like we do for embedded
GNU Make for dos and win.

Does anyone know such copy tool for MS-DOS? GNU would be even nicer.

Brgds,
Viktor
