Hi,
I definitively can't force cp to override existing files without > asking confirmation.
According to documentation , I try :
cp -r --force src/file1 ./
but always a confirmation is asked...
What's wrong ?
'cp -r --reply=yes src/file1 ./'
This will work... Check out the man pages for cp or even cp --help
I couldn't find any reference to 'reply' in both `cp --help` and `man
cp` here (coreutils-6.9-17.fc8). What version is yours?
Moreover:
$ cp --reply=yes
cp: the --reply option is deprecated; use -i or -f instead
cp: missing file operand
Try `cp --help' for more information.
That last advice is still pertinent, James ;-). Now, what cp does Luc have?
