	folks,

	is there a way i can be sure that my little C program has copied a
	dos/win file named, say, foo.htm\;7 to simply foo.htm?

	my program uses fopen/fgets/fputs to copy the markup files.  of
	the several i have copied, no problem.  unless i hack cmp or diff, 
	i have to avoid the shell.

	any ideas? in other words, does anybody have a prefab cmp(oldfile, newfile)
	fn?

	gary
