COPY
Copies text to a file, from a file, or from one position to another
within the edit file.
Syntax
COP[Y]
{char range [TO filename ] [BY increment]}
{ [TO char position] }
{ }
{filename[vers des][char range][TO char position] [BY increment]}
[Q[UIET]]
Parameters
Char Range Defines the range of characters to be copied. If the
copy is from another file, the default character range
is ALL. Character range is separated by a slash.
line position [(column#)] [/line position[(column#)]] or
ALL
Filename The name of the file which is to be copied. This
parameter is to be used when copying between files.
Vers Des Allows you to copy a particular version of a file. If
(Version you do not specify a default, it will be the LATEST
Designator) version of an owned file, the REFERENCE version of a
file which is not owned, or a file upon which a USE has
been issued.
TO Defines the destination filename and/or character
position. If you do not define a destination file, text
will be copied into the edit file.
Char Position Line position [(column#)]
BY increment Allows you to copy the text by a specific increment.
QUIET Suppresses output to $STDLIST.
Description
At the end of a copy, text exists at both the source and the destination.
If the copy is being made from one file into the edit file, the file must
be a TSAM, numbered USASCII, or numbered KSAM file with a record length
less than or equal to 132 bytes. If the file that is being copied
contains records that are longer than those in the edit file, the lines
will be truncated as they are copied.
There must be sufficient space (unused line numbers) to allow the text to
be copied. If enough space does not exist, TOOLSET/XL will not begin the
copy.
If you do not specify an increment, TOOLSET/XL will calculate one.
