Copied files or directories can be pasted in a different location.
Note
You can only paste directories on local drives and on USB or network drives.
Note
Write protection
If the current directory is write-protected for the user, then the function is not offered.
Note
When you copy directories, any missing endings are added automatically.
All letters (except accented characters), numbers, and underscores are permitted for name
assignment. The names are automatically converted to upper-case letters, and extra dots are
converted to underscores.
Example
If the name is not changed during the copy procedure, a copy is created automatically:
MYPROGRAM.MPF is copied to MYPROGRAM__1.MPF. The next time it is copied, it is
changed to MYPROGRAM__2.MPF, etc.
If the files MYPROGRAM.MPF, MYPROGRAM__1.MPF, and MYPROGRAM__3.MPF already
exist in a directory, MYPROGRAM__2.MPF is created as the next copy of MYPROGRAM.MPF.
