Quick question, let''s say I want to grab all the characters in a file (reguardless of whether they''re whitespace/character) and stuff them into another file, in exactly the same format as in their original file, how could I do this using File Streams (C++)?
I think there a couple ways. If your programming it for windows, I think there are API functions you can use (I''m not sure what they are, I''m still learning the API). If not, there are standard C++ functions that you can use, I think its something like fin << and fout >>.
You figure out a way to use the DOS copy command. 
But seriously, I''d say check the file I/O tutorials on both NeXe and my site (http://www20.brinkster.com/draqza) and then all you''d have to do would be read one file into a temporary buffer, then stick it back out. I don''t know if just using << and >> would work quite right, though.
