Parameters

input-filespec[,...]

   Specifies the name of an existing file to be copied. The asterisk
   (*)  and the percent sign (%) wildcard characters are allowed.
   If you do not specify the device or directory, the COPY command
   uses your current default device and directory. If you specify
   more than one file, separate the file specifications with either
   commas (,)  or plus signs (+).


output-filespec

   Specifies the name of the output file into which the input is
   copied.

   You must specify at least one field in the output file
   specification. If you do not specify the device or directory, the
   COPY command uses your current default device and directory. The
   COPY command replaces any other missing fields (file name, file
   type, version number) with the corresponding field of the input
   file specification. If you specify more than one input file, the
   COPY command generally uses the fields from the first input file
   to determine any missing fields in the output file.

   You can use the asterisk (*)  wildcard character in place of
   any two of the following: the file name, the file type, or the
   version number. The COPY command uses the corresponding field in
   the related input file to name the output file.
