This should probably go in 2.1. I plan to fix `cp -f' soon too (-f just truns off -i; it doesn't remove the target like it is supposed to). Other bugs in cp include: - `cp -pR' doesn't preserve timestamps on directories. - `cp -pR' doesn't preserve links. These problems are most serious when `cp -pRP' is used by `mv' to move directory trees across file systems. Bruce
