Coping all files in a folder

ruby-talk
1

require 'ftools'

source="c:\\axis\\FTP storage"
dest="c:\\axis\\images"
For some reason this code will not work, I am not sure why. It will
get into the loop with the copy state meant and then error.

dir.each do|file|
  copy= true
  puts "#{file}"

  stop=gets

  if file=="."
    copy=false
  end

  if file==".."
    copy=false
  end

  if copy==true
    puts "I'm in"
    File.copy( "#{file}", "#{dest}")
  end

Any advice on what I am doing wrong would be great, I am pretty new to
Ruby and programming in general.

Thanks
Nick
