CopyLinks

This list is used to define a global list of names or patterns which are to be copied rather than linked symbolically. For example

CopyLinks = ( *.config )
The same facility can be specified for each individual link operation using the copy option See links. Copying is performed using a file age comparison.

Note that all entries defined under a specified class are valid only as long as that class is defined. For instance

  class::

      CopyLinks = ( pattern )

would define a pattern which was only valid when class is defined.
