Backing up folders/files

I want to write a routine to backup my game folder. So far I can only see the Copyfile command which copies files only. Is there a way to copy an entire folder and it's contents in Blitz?

Don't think so.

However, you can Create a folder - so, technically, you can do it by creating the copy directory (naming it to whatever you want) first then copy the files into it.

Recursive file copy.

i.e.

Function FileCopy()
  Repeat
    Is filetype a file, or folder?
    If file, copy file
    If folder, update path and call FileCopy()
  Until no more files/subfolders in folder
End Function

Thanks. I tried it and got a bit stuck, but then I found a sample in the archives which does exactly as you suggested..... it's at http://www.blitzbasic.com/codearcs/codearcs.php?code=677
