The word copy is a reserved word in the Microsoft Editor. If you write
an M extension and name it "copy", the editor will load but not
execute your extension.
If you name the function (for example) cpy rather than copy, it will
work correctly.
The following declaration incorrectly uses the reserved word "copy."
Renaming the the function "cpy" will resolve the problem:
flagType pascal EXTERNAL copy (argData, Parg, fMeta)
unsigned int argData;
ARG far *Parg;
flagType fMeta;
