Hello!

I'm looking for a possibility to run XCOPY, COPY, MOVE, or other DOS-programs
in the background (multitasking), so I can work in the foreground with another
program. (like in UNIX: 'command &' runs 'command' in the background)
I would prefer a unit or program in Pascal or a already compiled program.

I thank you for any help!

Stephan.
