- _F_i_l_e_1 is copied onto _f_i_l_e_2. By default, the mode and owner
- of _f_i_l_e_2 are preserved if it already existed; otherwise the
- mode of the source file modified by the current _u_m_a_s_k(2) is
- used. The --pp option causes _c_p to attempt to preserve
- (duplicate) in its copies the modification times and modes
- of the source files, ignoring the present _u_m_a_s_k.
-
- In the second form, one or more _f_i_l_e_s are copied into the
- _d_i_r_e_c_t_o_r_y with their original file-names.
-
- _C_p refuses to copy a file onto itself.
-
- If the --ii option is specified, _c_p will prompt the user with
- the name of the file whenever the copy will cause an old
- file to be overwritten. An answer of 'y' will cause _c_p to
- continue. Any other answer will prevent it from overwriting
- the file.
-
- If the --rr option is specified and any of the source files
- are directories, _c_p copies each subtree rooted at that name;
- in this case the destination must be a directory.
