Copying files is done with the command <tt>cp</tt>:

|
<P>
|

<P><TT> /home/larry/foo# <em>cp /etc/termcap .</em> <BR>
|
|
/home/larry/foo# <em>cp /etc/shells .</em> <BR>

/home/larry/foo# <em>ls --F</em> <BR>

shells termcap <BR>

The <tt>cp</tt> command copies the files listed on the command line to the
|
|
file or directory given as the last argument. Notice how we use the
|
|
directory ``<tt>.</tt>'' to refer to the current directory.
