This information is obsolete under Win98. I don't have later versions of
Win95 available, so I can't speak for those versions, but under Win98
there are now three (3) files that make up the "xcopy suite" -
xcopy.exe, xcopy32.exe, and xcopy.mod. If you run a file comparison tool
against the two *.exe files, you'll see that they are now exactly alike.
