NAME            cp -- copy



SYNOPSIS        cp file   file   file   file   ...
                       11     12     21     22


DESCRIPTION     Files are taken in pairs; the first file is

                opened for reading, the second created mode 17.

                Then the first is copied into the second.



FILES           --



SEE ALSO        cat, pr



DIAGNOSTICS     Error returns are checked at every system call,

                and appropriate diagnostics are produced.



BUGS            The second file should be created in the mode of

                the first.



                A directory convention as used in mv should be

                adopted for cp.
