1. first practical question: easy way to do a recursive dir copy

Hi there,

    Is there a simple way to do a recursive directory copy
    in Eu. Like entering a certain directory and copying all
    files and lower subdirs from that directory to a destination
    while retaining the directory structure.

    I looked around for something usefull in the archive but
    could not find anything.

    Any pointers ?

Strange. Juergen, isn't our cross platform file library in the archives?

Anyways, Juergen and I wrote this file library that provides several file
manipulation routines, including copy, move, rename, and delete. One of the
functions in that library did exactly what you are asking for (iirc it was
called xcopy). I think it was called file2.e

See Win32Fil.ew or file.e. You'll need to recurse yourself, unless you use 
walk_dir().
