cpio
Note:-
All in all, a very handy and powerful tool but not really for the faint hearted. For people not 100% comfortable at the command line, if you just want to copy a directory tree then "cp -R" is going to be more useful 9 times out of 10. Pete.
cpio
This is a unix command, part of the GNU fileutils I believe. man cpio should tell u exactly what it does. Yes, I agree it is a better way of copying file, especially when you are attempting to copy symbolic links, where as cp will just follow the links unless told otherwise via the command. For people who aren't comfortable w/ the console.. GET COMFORABLTE!!!! |
