          CP_TODIR  = $00, copy file to a directory (keep same filename)
          CP_TOFILE = $01, copy file as new file target
    BHL = pointer to null-terminated source filename (B=0, local)

out, if successful:
        Fc = 0, file successfully copied to target
 
out, if failed:
        Fc = 1, unable to copy file
        A = error code:
             RC_IVF, Invalid directory or filename
             RC_USE, File in use
             RC_EXIS, File already exists

Notes

  • API call implemented in OZ 5.0.
  • Specified target directory will automatically be recursively created if not found (CP_TODIR). When copying as new file (CP_TOFILE), the target directory must exist.
