87

AD CP

89       Copy files and directories.
90
91       In the first synopsis form, the cp utility copies the contents of the
92       src_file to the dst_file. In the second synopsis form, the contents of
93       each named src_file is copied to the destination dst_directory. The
94       names of the files themselves are not changed. If cp detects an attempt
95       to copy a file to itself, the copy will fail.
96
97       When a copy targeting an AFP volume is detected, its CNID database
98       daemon is connected and all copies will also go through the CNID
99       database. AppleDouble data are also copied and created as needed when
100       the target is an AFP volume.
101
102       Options:
103
104       -a
105           Archive mode. Same as -Rp.
106
107       -f
108           For each existing destination pathname, remove it and create a new
109           file, without prompting for confirmation regardless of its
110           permissions. (The -f option overrides any previous -i or -n
111           options.)
112
113       -i
114           Cause cp to write a prompt to the standard error output before
115           copying a file that would overwrite an existing file. If the
116           response from the standard input begins with the character 'y' or
117           'Y', the file copy is attempted. (The -i option overrides any
118           previous -f or -n options.)
119
120       -n
121           Do not overwrite an existing file. (The -n option overrides any
122           previous -f or -i options.)
123
124       -p
125           Cause cp to preserve the following attributes of each source file
126           in the copy: modification time, access time, file flags, file mode,
127           user ID, and group ID, as allowed by permissions. If the user ID
128           and group ID cannot be preserved, no error message is displayed and
129           the exit value is not altered.
130
131       -R
132           If src_file designates a directory, cp copies the directory and the
133           entire subtree connected at that point. If the src_file ends in a
134           /, the contents of the directory are copied rather than the
135           directory itself.
136
137       -v
138           Cause cp to be verbose, showing files as they are copied.
139
140       -x
141           File system mount points are not traversed.
142

AD MV

144       Move files and directories.
145
146       Move files around within an AFP volume, updating the CNID database as
147       needed. If either:
148
149       •   source or destination is not an AFP volume
150
151       •   source AFP volume != destination AFP volume
152
153       the files are copied and removed from the source.
154
155       Options:
156
157       -f
158           Do not prompt for confirmation before overwriting the destination
159           path. (The -f option overrides any previous -i or -n options.)
160
161       -i
162           Cause mv to write a prompt to standard error before moving a file
163           that would overwrite an existing file. If the response from the
164           standard input begins with the character `y' or `Y', the move is
165           attempted. (The -i option overrides any previous -f or -n options.)
166
167       -n
168           Do not overwrite an existing file. (The -n option overrides any
169           previous -f or -i options.)
170
171       -v
172           Cause mv to be verbose, showing files after they are moved.
173

AD RM

175       Remove files and directories.
176
177       The rm utility attempts to remove the non-directory type files
178       specified on the command line. If the files and directories reside on
179       an AFP volume, the corresponding CNIDs are deleted from the volumes
180       database.
181
182       The options are as follows:
183
184       -R
185           Attempt to remove the file hierarchy rooted in each file argument.
186
187       -v
188           Be verbose when deleting files, showing them as they are removed.
