DESCRIPTION¶
The file(s) are copied to the target file or directory. If the destination is a
directory, then the
file is copied into
directory with its original filename. If the
-b option is given and the target file already exists, it is
renamed to the original name folloeb by the backup suffix. The default suffix
is ".old" but can be overriden with the
-B option.
The options are as follows:
- -B
suffix
- Orverride backup suffix
- -b
- Backup any existing files before overwriting.
- -c
- Copy the file. This is actually the default. The
-c option is only included for backwards

as required.
