Copy inc Subfolders?

Anyone know of a command line replacement for copy that will copy
subfolders as with xcopy in Win32?

Or is the source code to the inbuilt copy command available for
modification? {i have looked but cannot find it}

many thanks, Col

No, there's no source, but I'm sure it's just calling CopyFile(). Writing
your own version of xcopy for directory structure is a pretty simple
programming exercise (FindFirstFile(), FindNextFile(), CopyFile(),
FindFirstFile(directory), FindNextFile(), CreateDirectory(), repeat).
