Hi

How do I copy an entire directory from one place to another?

At the moment I am copying the names of all the sub directories then
creating them in the new location, then recursively going through each
of the sub directories and copying the files to the new directories
created.

This seems like a long way around.

Plus I also want to be able to copy the entire directory to another
machine - I was thinking of opening a socket connection to a listener on
the target machine and trying to copy the files that way.

Any thoughts?
