  Text:         COPY is recursive
 
  Explanation:  You have either:
 
                attempted to COPY a file that you have already started
                copying, or:
 
                incorrectly spelled the name of either the file you have
                previously started to COPY, or the file you currently wish
                to copy.
 
  Resolution:   Revise your program so that the file you have already
                started to COPY is copied completely before you attempt to
                COPY the same file again.
 
                Correct the spelling error.
