question on "cp -f" on centos 5.1

[Jerry Geis <geisj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When I issue the command cp -af --reply=yes * ../other
it tells me --reply is deprecated and use -i or -f.

when I remove the --reply=yes I have to indicate 'y' to every
file being copied.

I just want to copy every file in my current directory to another
directory and overwrite any file that is there.

What is the correct way to do that?

Jerry
