In the next release this will be supported. Applying C to a directory
will copy the directory just like cp -R. This will work for both
remote and local hosts. For remote copies, it is fully asynch,
including mkdir commands.
I recall that some time ago Joerg-Martin posted a patch to 1.14 to to
allow synchronous recursive copies. For technical reasons, making
this work asynch was a bit of a bear. That's part of why it took me
so long. However, it's working now.
