  Painfully true - I should have mentioned that Command Prompt 'copy' =
will
  also happily copy all streams along with the data.

  Not that it matters here, but the author of ZTree has some =
compatibility
  issue (ancient Windows? same source used on OS/2?), and ZTree defaults =
to
  do its own file copy with read/write so he can show progress and allow
  cancel (which allegedly the ancient systems won't reliably support).
