c1541 can mount multiple images at the same time, and you can copy files
between them:

c1541 #8> attach source.d64 8
c1541 #8> attach dest.d82 9
c1541 #8> copy @8:file @9:
c1541 #8> dir @9: 
0 "dest            " 82 2c
1     "file"              prg 
4132 blocks free.

Unfortunately I don't think it handles wildcards, at least not
gracefully.
