Copying Options
When you are copying files or directories, before entering your destination filename or directory name, you can pick one of the following two options.
• Delete Old — If you wish to overwrite an existing file, select Delete Old in OPTIONS.
• Screen — This option allows you to view the files and directories to be copied, on the built-in editor. If you leave the editor positively by pressing [Ctrl] [D], the copy command will still be active and you will be prompted to specify a destination name. If however, you leave the editor negatively by pressing [Esc] [Break], the copy command will be canceled, and your files and directories will not be copied.

• It is not possible to specify more than one file or directory as the destination name.
