Add images to an existing system screen saver

You could also just copy to the directory, rather than cd'ing into it:

sudo cp /Users/emn/Desktop/X.jpg /System/Library/Screen\ Savers/Cosmos.slideSaver/Contents/Resources

(Notice that you need to escape the space in "Screen Savers", or else quote it -- whether or not you cd first.) If there's really some reason to cd, you can always run a subshell:

(cd /System/Library/Screen\ Savers/Cosmos.slideSaver/Contents/Resources; sudo cp /Users/emn/Desktop/X.jpg)

When this command is finished, you'll be wherever you were in the directory tree before you executed it.
