Subject: Re: [Dev-C++] Cp vs. copy
You can also use the DOS xcopy /k to copy attributes. However, Per is
right, and if you use Mingw and/or Msys then you can use cp via DOS. Read
the help on xcopy as there are quite a few options.

Some - non-complete - notes about copy:
copy will preserve date/time of last write.
copy will modify date/time of last access
copy will modify date/time of file creation
copy will append archive flag
copy will remove read-only flag
copy will not even find system file
copy will not even find hidden file
In short - copy is inferior to cp.
Simple solution: Download a win32-compatible port of the cp command.
