cp¶

copy files and directory trees
NAME
    cp - copy files and directory trees

SYNOPSIS
    cp src dst
    cp -r src dst
    cp glob dir

DESCRIPTION
    Copies a file, a directory tree, or every glob match. A file is
    copied byte for byte to dst. If the source is a glob (* or ?), each
    match is copied INTO dst, which must be an existing directory (each
    lands at dst/basename). Copies work across the /d1 mount. cp is a
    /bin program.

OPTIONS
    -r    copy a directory and its contents recursively

LIMITS
    With -r, copies at most 8 levels deep and 24 entries per level;
    anything beyond is silently skipped, so a deep tree copies
    incompletely without an error. Names are held in 12-byte slots,
    matching the on-disk name field.

EXAMPLES
    cp OLD.TXT NEW.TXT       copy one file
    cp -r SRC DST            copy a subtree
    cp -r /d1/SRC /SRC       copy across the drive-1 mount
    cp *.asm /bak            copy each match into a directory

SEE ALSO
    mv, cat, touch, del
