file ->copy: from=file

Copy the contents of the argument-file to this file. Argument ordering may look strange, but is consistent to all other file->copy operations in XPCE. The example below defines an obvious Prolog predicate using this method.

copy_file(From, To) :-
        send(file(To), copy, from).

Bugs: Does not yet copy the mode attributes.
