Copying files
We copy files using copy, cp, rcp and ftp commands. Those two last ones
especially when the systems are different. The ftp command is just a standard
ftp client, so I won't describe it in here.
copy - copies files and directories
$ copy [options] <file1> <file2>
Options:
-a copies with a query
-ad copies directories with a query
-l make a linked copy (not a physical one)
-m set file2 time and date to those read from file1
-r copy directory and the contents
-v diagnostic messages turned on
cp - copies files
$ cp <file1> <file2>
$ cp <file1> <file2> <directory>
rcp - copies files from one system to another
$ rcp [options] <source_system>:<file1> <target_system>:<file2>
Options:
-r copy entire directories and their contents
