This plugin adds the ability to copy a binary file from one location to another.
Local files residing on the system can be copied, as well as remote files residing

on systems connected to the network that support Windows or Samba (SMB) protocols.
When the file is copied to the local system, CR/LF sequences are checked and possibly
modified so the file can be used properly under Windows. This CR/LF conversion makes
it possible to copy remote logfiles residing on a UNIX/Linux system SAMBA share to a
local Windows directory.
