G'day,

  Look around on any of the major archive sites. There are zillions of
real copy programs out there, i.e. copy programs which also copy system
and hidden files.

  Alternatively you could switch to a real DOS which includes this basic
functionality! :-) / :-(

  For information on the major DOS archive sites, like Simtel,
garbo.uwasa.fi, etc., see the newsgroups comp.archives.msdos.announce
and comp.archives.msdos.d.
