Actually, it's in Mac::MoreFiles. Ouch, poor naming, Matthias! ;) I only
stumbled across this when I did a "grep" from within BBEdit on the
MacPerl folder.

I try to get both FSpFileCopy and FSpDirectoryCopy to work, because I
want to be able to copy folders as well. However, it dies, mumbling
something about "Usage".

I think stumbling block is PREFLIGHT. I have absolutely no idea what
this parameter is for.

Help?
