Question PERL Question
Can anyone tell me if the copy command in PERL has the same functionality as in KSH shell in UNIX or does it actually move the file ??

$cp_stat=system("cp $ENV{OLAMEBSDIR}/data/olam.ddabal$type $ENV{OLAMDIR}/balance/data/olam.ddabal$type.$HeaderDate");

file::spec::cygwin

File::Spec::Cygwin(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				     File::Spec::Cygwin(3)

NAME

       File::Spec::Cygwin - methods for Cygwin file specs

SYNOPSIS

	require File::Spec::Cygwin; # Done internally by File::Spec if needed

DESCRIPTION

       See File::Spec and File::Spec::Unix.  This package overrides the implementation of these methods, not the semantics.

       This module is still in beta.  Cygwin-knowledgeable folks are invited to offer patches and suggestions.

       canonpath
	   Any "" (backslashes) are converted to "/" (forward slashes), and then File::Spec::Unix canonpath() is called on the result.

       file_name_is_absolute
	   True is returned if the file name begins with "drive_letter:", and if not, File::Spec::Unix file_name_is_absolute() is called.

       tmpdir (override)
	   Returns a string representation of the first existing directory from the following list:

	       $ENV{TMPDIR}
	       /tmp
	       $ENV{'TMP'}
	       $ENV{'TEMP'}
	       C:/temp

	   Since Perl 5.8.0, if running under taint mode, and if the environment variables are tainted, they are not used.

       case_tolerant
	   Override Unix. Cygwin case-tolerance depends on managed mount settings and as with MsWin32 on GetVolumeInformation() $ouFsFlags ==
	   FS_CASE_SENSITIVE, indicating the case significance when comparing file specifications.  Default: 1
