Feature request: copy dir function in nimscript #7393

Closed mratsim closed 6 years ago

mratsim commented 6 years ago

I don't see a cpDir function in Nimscript in both the docs and source code.

Trying to use os didn't work:

from os import copyDir

copyDir("./foo/", "./bar/")
# Error: cannot 'importc' variable at compile time

here is an example how it can be implemented: https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/7284

I'm planning on adding the following procs to nimscript with the equivalent proc name from the os module.
