-The File::Copy module provides a basic function C<copy> which takes two
+The File::Copy module provides two basic functions, C<copy> and
+C<move>, which are useful for getting the contents of a file from
+one place to another.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item *
+
+The C<copy> function takes two
parameters: a file to copy from and a file to copy to. Either
argument may be a string, a FileHandle reference or a FileHandle
glob. Obviously, if the first argument is a filehandle of some
sort, it will be read from, and if it is a file I<name> it will
be opened for reading. Likewise, the second argument will be
-written to (and created if need be). Note that passing in
+written to (and created if need be). Trying to copy a file on top
+of itself is a fatal error.
+
+B<Note that passing in
files as handles instead of names may lead to loss of information
on some operating systems; it is recommended that you use file
-names whenever possible.
+names whenever possible.> Files are opened in binary mode where
+applicable. To get a consistent behaviour when copying from a
+filehandle to a file, use C<binmode> on the filehandle.
An optional third parameter can be used to specify the buffer
size used for copying. This is the number of bytes from the
You may use the syntax C<use File::Copy "cp"> to get at the
"cp" alias for this function. The syntax is I<exactly> the same.
+=item *
+
+The C<move> function also takes two parameters: the current name
+and the intended name of the file to be moved. If the destination
+already exists and is a directory, and the source is not a
+directory, then the source file will be renamed into the directory
+specified by the destination.
+
+If possible, move() will simply rename the file. Otherwise, it copies
+the file to the new location and deletes the original. If an error occurs
+during this copy-and-delete process, you may be left with a (possibly partial)
+copy of the file under the destination name.
+
+You may use the "mv" alias for this function in the same way that
+you may use the "cp" alias for C<copy>.
+
+=back
+
File::Copy also provides the C<syscopy> routine, which copies the
file specified in the first parameter to the file specified in the
second parameter, preserving OS-specific attributes and file
structure. For Unix systems, this is equivalent to the simple
C<copy> routine. For VMS systems, this calls the C<rmscopy>
routine (see below). For OS/2 systems, this calls the C<syscopy>
-XSUB directly.

+then C<copy> will perform a "system copy" of
the input file to a new output file, in order to preserve file

+parameter is ignored. If either argument to C<copy> is a
+handle to an opened file, then data is copied using Perl
operators, and no effort is made to preserve file attributes
or record structure.
-The RMS copy routine may also be called directly under VMS

+The system copy routine may also be called directly under VMS and OS/2

I<filespec> of the input and output files, respectively. The
name and type of the input file are used as defaults for the
output file, if necessary.
Like C<copy>, C<rmscopy> returns 1 on success. If an error occurs,
it sets C<$!>, deletes the output file, and returns 0.

+
+On Mac OS (Classic), the path separator is ':', not '/', and the
+current directory is denoted as ':', not '.'. You should be careful
+about specifying relative pathnames. While a full path always begins
+with a volume name, a relative pathname should always begin with a
+':'. If specifying a volume name only, a trailing ':' is required.
+
+E.g.
+
+ copy("file1", "tmp"); # creates the file 'tmp' in the current directory
+ copy("file1", ":tmp:"); # creates :tmp:file1
+ copy("file1", ":tmp"); # same as above
+ copy("file1", "tmp"); # same as above, if 'tmp' is a directory (but don't do
+ # that, since it may cause confusion, see example #1)
+ copy("file1", "tmp:file1"); # error, since 'tmp:' is not a volume
+ copy("file1", ":tmp:file1"); # ok, partial path
+ copy("file1", "DataHD:"); # creates DataHD:file1
+
+ move("MacintoshHD:fileA", "DataHD:fileB"); # moves (don't copies) files from one
+ # volume to another
