I don't have a copy.exe.  Copy is an internal function of command.com and
does not run like a normal program.  I think "command -c copy" is how to
invoke it, but I was trying to avoid that for people using alternate
shells like 4dos and bash.  I do have cp.exe and I package it with my
lynx'es. 

The cp I distribute isn't confused by the screwed up slashes.  Also, I
don't have any problem with the names of things being longer than 8.3
under Win95.  Does the FNAMES stuff disable my ability to save stuff with
names > 8.3 or use stuff in directory names > 8.3 ?  I haven't had a
chance to unravel it all.

Also, it looks like the LYdownload patch is changing the behavior of the
VMS path rather than the the intended DOS/Win32 area.
