copy (source, dest[, buffsize])
Copies source to
dest. Takes the following arguments:
- source
-
The source string, FileHandle reference, or FileHandle glob. If
source is a filehandle, it is read from;
if it's a filename, the filehandle is opened for
reading.
- dest
-
The destination string, FileHandle reference, or FileHandle glob.
dest is created if necessary and written
to.
- buffsize
-
Specifies the size of the buffer to be used for copying. Optional.
cp (source, dest[, buffsize])
Like copy, but exported only on request:
use File::Copy "cp"
move (source, dest)
Moves source to
dest. If the destination exists and is a
directory, and the source is not a directory, then the source file is
renamed into the directory specified by
dest. Return values are the same as for
copy.
mv (source, dest)
Like move, but exported only on request:
use File::Copy "mv"
