[Pharo-users] overriding FileReference>>copyTo: behavior

2018-09-17 Thread Peter Uhnak
Hi, is there an API to copy a file that will override the target destination if it already exists? I was quite surprised that #copyTo: (and #copyAllTo:) will throw up when the target file already exists. Do I need to explicitly remove the file before copying / copy the contents instead? Thanks,
