simplest way to copy a file from one place to another?

keszegh · June 2020

so i'm getting close to finish a better file manager inside my animaiton app. now i'm working on copy/paste to/from clipboard feature, for that i'd be happy if you could let me know what's the simplest way to copy a file (of any format) from one place to another in the file system. thanks

so as nobody responded, let me put here my solution:

function copy(sourcepath,targetpath)  
local f = io.open(sourcepath, "r")
if f~=nil then
    local t = f:read("*a")
    f:close()    
    local outf=io.open(targetpath,"w")
    outf:write(t)
    outf:close()          
end
end
