WAD Copy's command dialogue not working

[RogerB]

TCC 16.03.55 x64 Windows 7 [Version 6.1.7601]
TCC Build 55 Windows 7 Build 7601 Service Pack 1

The help for COPY says:

/= Display the COPY command dialog to help you set the filename and command line options. You cannot specify any other arguments on the command line

but it's not working:

d:\temp>copy /=
TCC: (Sys) The system cannot find the file specified.
"D:\="

     0 files copied

and the command dialogue doesn't appear.

The help also says:

If you don't specify any arguments, COPY will display its command dialog.

but it doesn't, it displays the quick help instead:

d:\temp>copy
Usage : COPY [/A:[[-][+]rhsdaecjot] /CDEFGH /FTP:A /I"text" /JKLM /MD /N[dejnst]
/O:[-]adegnrstu /OPQR /Sn /TUVWXZ] source [+] ... [/A /B] [TO:] destination [..
.] [/A /B]

although that might be a documentation error rather than a bug.

The same problems are seen with MOVE, which I guess shares a lot of code with COPY.

You probably have an alias defined for COPY.

The command dialogs have not been enabled yet in the alpha. Maybe in another build or two, but for now I want people testing the commands and functions, not the UI.

But it shouldn't show the quick help -- you probably have an alias defined for COPY.

I reported this against v16, not the alpha, as I hit the problem in v16, but you're correct, a forgotten alias is the cause.
