Copying a file on windows fails

[liammclennan]

I'm using fs.copySync(src, dest);

It works on linux, but on windows I get

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'dest'

Will you post a snippet, including exact file names reproducing the problem?

Thanks.

The problem was a colon in the file name, so something like:

fs.copySync(src, 'fo:o.txt');

The fs.open function produces the same result. There is no way for this to actually work. A better error message would be nice, but I think this is a problem in node, not fs-extra.
