                     29: copies files between machines and is similar to

                     31: At least one of
                     32: .I fromfile
                     33: and
                     34: .I tofile
                     35: must be remote.

                     40: .B \-q,
                     41: and

                     46: .I Fromfile
                     47: and
                     48: .I tofile
                     49: follow these conventions:
                     50: .TP 4
                     51: 1.
                     52: A simple filename is assumed to be local and from the current directory.
                     53: .TP 4
                     54: 2.
                     55: A filename preceded by a machine designator (see below)
                     56: is a reference to a file on the specified remote machine.
                     57: If a full pathname is not given, it is assumed to be from the login directory.
                     58: .PP
                     59: Examples:
                     60: .IP "    grades.p" 20
                     61: file in the current directory on local machine
                     62: .IP "    C:junk" 20
                     63: file in your login directory on C
                     64: .IP "    /usr/lib/pq" 20
                     65: file on local machine
                     66: .IP "    C:comp/c2.c" 20
                     67: file in a subdirectory on C machine
                     68: .PP
                     69: When files are being ``fetched'', that is, the
                     70: .I fromfile
                     71: is remote and the 
                     72: .I tofile
                     73: is local, the
                     74: .I tofile
                     75: is created zero-length mode 600.
                     76: For security reasons, when the ``fetched'' file's contents
                     77: arrive at the local machine, the file must still be zero-length
                     78: and mode 0600.
                     79: No confirmation is sent to the user that the file has been ``fetched'';
                     80: a non-zero file length indicates completion.
                     81: .PP
