OK, here's one for ya (and Microsoft).  Lets assume that you have a program
called JUNK.COM in your current directory and it's 15385 bytes long (the
number doesn't matter).  Now, do this:
     COPY JUNK.* TEMPFILE
You shouldn't have any other files in the current directory that match JUNK.*
besides JUNK.COM.  The result of this copy will be a file called TEMPFILE
with today's date and smaller than the original JUNK.COM (usually by a long
ways).  What appears to be happening is that the COPY is being done as if
JUNK.COM was an ASCII file, and as soon as an EOF character (26) is encountered
the copy halts.  The following will work:
    COPY JUNK.* A:
    COPY JUNK.* TEMPFILE.*
    COPY JUNK.COM TEMPFILE
But NOT 
    COPY JUNK.* TEMPFILE
Seems like a bug to me.
