Lesson 6:  Copying Files 

   1.     a.  COPY FROM=ACORN;TO=PINE

              Get into the editor and change the file PINE so that it now
              looks different.  Keep PINE.

          b.

                   COPY PINE,ACORN
                   PURGE OLD? no
                   NO COPY WAS DONE (CIERR 9113)

          c.

                   COPY PINE,ACORN
                   PURGE OLD? yes
                   PRINT ACORN

              The PINE file writes over the "original" ACORN file.
              Printing the contents of the "new" ACORN file reveals the
              contents of the "old" PINE file.
