In Reply to your message to Ron Stanonik of JUL 18'

  Here are the commands I have tried using between the DORADO'
  and the VAX and their various consequences':'
'
'
  COPYFILE --'
'
     From D To Vax ': works if VAX path is specified as '
        {HOST}<directory>filename'
'
      e.g (COPYFILE ''{DSK1}LISP.SYSOUT '
                    ''{NPRDC}</nprdc/04/mccand/interlisp/>LISP.SYSOUT)'
'
     From Vax To D': works if specified as above but WITHOUT the'
     right and left angle brackets'
'
      e.g (COPYFILE ''{NPRDC}/nprdc/04/mccand/interlisp/LISP.SYSOUT '
                    ''{DSK1}LISP.SYSOUT)'
'
     Seems to copy both text and DCOM files without problems.'
'
'
    DIRECTORY -- works if specified above with angle brackets.'
                 wildcards seem to work'
'
     e.g. (DIRECTORY ''{NPRDC}</nprdc/04/mccand/interlisp/>*)'
'
'
    LOAD -- works if specified above WITHOUT angle brackets'
'
     e.g. (DIRECTORY ''{NPRDC}/nprdc/04/mccand/interlisp/COMPILEBANG.DCOM)'
'
    MAKEFILE -- can''t get it to work either way. Error is '
'
       Unable to open file.'
'
    SYSOUT  -- same error as above.'
'
These are all I''ve tried so far.'
