CP(1) CP(1)
NAME
cp - copy
SYNOPSIS
cp file1 file2
cp file ... directory
DESCRIPTION
File1 is copied onto file2. The mode and owner of file2 are
preserved if it already existed; the mode of the source file
is used otherwise.
In the second form, one or more files are copied into the
directory with their original file-names.
Cp refuses to copy a file onto itself.
