Hi all,

I would like to issue a copy operation from within my Fortran code. I
have been using the system intrinsic, however, some compilers do not
know about this intrinsic.



There is probably a way in your compiler to make a system
call. If you want it to work on *every* compiler, then
you will run into problems with the plethora of
compiler-dependent options in the open statements.
System call is the way to go , even if you have to make
a change for each compiler.

But you can still have problems if you write code that might be used on a non-POSIX system. No matter what solution you find, one good approach is have one source file containing platform/compiler dependent code so that most of the messy portability stuff is in one place.
