If I were defining fcopy in J (rather than deferring to the host
operating system), I'd do it like this:

   fcopy=: fwrite~ fread

Data flow would be right to left (so source file name on the right,
and destination file name on the left). Result is the length of the
copied file.

I hope this helps,
