there doesnt appear to be a file copy command. Whats the fastest alternative?

Would reading and writing byte for byte work, or would it be slower than an OS call?

not sure what would be faster, maybe use banks.

LoadBank
SaveBank

Function CopyFile( src$,dst$ )
Description Copy a file.

Have you updated to the latest level?
<edit> Alternative is to use copystream.

There definitely is! - Check the FileSystem module documentation - CopyFile().

Hey, you just can't update using syncmods. You have to download the update from this website under your acount.

This is an old post, not sure if you still need help.
