I know it existed in Oracle6 - and just checked my handy Oracle 6.0 SQL*Plus
v3.0 Quick Reference (circa 1991) to be sure.  The only v5 manual I could
find easily is my Database Administrator's Guide for Version 5.1 (circa
1986) and it contained no information on the copy command, but I'm pretty
sure it existed then also.

at least... I can't remember now, but I think there was a version of
copy at least as far back as version 5, when I started
