Hi Morgan,

That's because I stuck my neck out to far.  You can indeed use
downloadNetThing() to copy a file from one local disk to another but it has
two drawbacks:

1. It doesn't copy the resource fork on Mac
2. netDone() returns TRUE immediately, so you get no feedback for a progress
   bar.

Sorry for giving you false hope,

James
