For example, an actual format for the COPY command is:
copy [d:][path]base name[.ext][/A][/B]
[
d:] [path]
[
base name[. ext] [/A] [/B] [/VI
If you feel up to dealing with a command like that, you should
probably ignore the remainder of this chapter and dive right into the
Disk Operating System manual.
However, you may feel more comfortable with a command format
like the following:
copy <file name> <drive>
That is the format dealt with in this manual. Using it, you can do a
lot of copying, and there is a good chance it will be sufficient for
your day-to-day tasks.
The simplified commands given in this chapter will give you enough
information to do a majority of the tasks that most people perform
with DOS.

CONVENTIONS OF THE FORMAT NOTATION
