1File/Copy/Recursive version 0.43
2================================
3
4This module has 3 functions, one to copy files only, one to copy directories
5only and one to do either depending on the argument's type.
6
7The depth to which a directory structure is copied can be set with:
8
9 $File::Copy::Recursive::Maxdepth
10
11setting it back to false or non numeric value will turn it back to unlimited.
12
13All functions attempt to preserve each copied file's mode unless you set
14 $File::Copy::Recursive::KeepMode
15to false.

4I have gotten much love from this module but it has suffered from neglect. Partly because I am busy and partly that the code is crusty (it was done back when package globals were all the rage–those of you with CGI tatoos know what I am talking about ;)).
5
6So I am finally making a plan to give this the attention it deserves.

101. Fix the [RTs](https://rt.cpan.org/Dist/Display.html?Queue=File-Copy-Recursive) and write tests (Issue #3) (pull requests welcome!)
112. Modernize the code and interface–Issue #2
123. Do not break existing consumers of the legacy interface–Issue #1
