Greetings:

Can anyone give me some clue as to how to use the COPYFILE XCMD by J. Brad
Hicks (I believe)?  I have tried the following syntaxes:

COPYFILE("file" "newfile")  (returns "expected ")" but found " " ")
COPYFILE("file newfile")    (the result is -2 (invalid queue element)
COPYFILE("file,newfile")    ( ditto)
COPYFILE("Vol:file,newfile") (ditto)

And many other permutations of the above.  Thanks alot... by the way, is this
xcmd in the archives, I did look for an example stack, apparently I threw out
the one from which I got this xcmd, after copying it into my Home Stack.

Thanks for your assistance,
