Paul -


Piece of proverbial cake:

use 1:

  cp pathname1  pathname2

Copies the file listed in pathname1 to the file listed in pathname2. Examples:

 cp foo /dd/tmp/woof
 cp erf snerf
 cp /dd/cmds/dir /dd/cmds/ls

use 2:

 cp pathname1 pathname2 ... pathnameN directory

Copies all files named into the directory specified. The last argument MUST be
a directory (and is checked for that before any copying is done):

 cp *.c *.h /dd/tmp/C_sources
 cp /dd/cmds/* /dd/lib/* /dd/defs/* /dd/BIG_MOMMA_DIR
