Wcopy v0.7 is a freeware program written by Andrew D. Smith. It's purpose is to allow a user to copy any file off a web site the same as they would a file using xcopy or copy. Currently Wcopy is beta.
The final goal is to allow users to use almost identical commands as used with the xcopy command. Including copy subdirectories (or links). Version Notes
