Hi,
I'm tryin to have Ruby copy some files so I don't have to
I can make the Directories, but apparently I need FTOOLS to actually
copy some files from hither to yon.
I can't seem to find FTOOLS.....anybody know where to get it? And
then....
where do I put it so Ruby can "see & use" it.
OR....
Is there a different/better way to copy files than FTOOLS?
I'm tryin to avoid actually opening EVERY FILE and loopin thru each line
writin into the new file......but I'm not above doin that

Use FileUtils:
require "fileutils"
FileUtils.cp src, dest
ri has lots of documentation about it!

Here is a bit from Matz' book:
The copy method will copy a file to a new name or location. It has an
optional flag parameter to write error messages to standard error. The
UNIX-like name cp is an alias.
require "fileutils"
# Copy epsilon to theta and log any errors.
FileUtils.copy("epsilon","theta", true)
