+
+<p><tt class="COMMAND">cp</tt>(1) copies files. DOS users will notice its similarity to
+the <tt class="COMMAND">copy</tt> command. There are many options for <tt
+class="COMMAND">cp</tt> , so you should have a look at the man page before using it.</p>
+
+<p>A common use is to use <tt class="COMMAND">cp</tt> to copy a file from one location to
+another. For example:</p>
+
+<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
+<tr>
+<td>
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">cp hejaz /tmp</kbd>
+</pre>
+</td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+
+<p>This copies the <tt class="FILENAME">hejaz</tt> file from the current directory to the
+<tt class="FILENAME">/tmp</tt> directory.</p>
+
+<p>Many users prefer to keep the timestamps preserved, as in this example:</p>
+
+<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
+<tr>
+<td>
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">cp -a hejaz /tmp</kbd>
+</pre>
+</td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+
+<p>This ensures that the timestamps are not modified in the copy.</p>
+
+<p>To recursively copy the contents of a directory to another directory, you would issue
+this command:</p>
+
+<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
+<tr>
+<td>
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">cp -R <var
+class="REPLACEABLE">mydir</var> /tmp</kbd>
+</pre>
+</td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+
+<p>That will copy the <var class="REPLACEABLE">mydir</var> directory to the <tt
+class="FILENAME">/tmp</tt> directory.</p>
+
+<p>Also if you wish to copy a directory or a file and keep all it's old permissions and
+time stamps and keep it exactly the same use <tt class="COMMAND">cp -p</tt>.</p>
+
+<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
+<tr>
+<td>
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">ls -l file</kbd>
+-rw-r--r--    1 root     vlad            4 Jan  1 15:27 file
+<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">cp -p file /tmp</kbd>
+<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">ls -l /tmp/file</kbd>
+-rw-r--r--    1 root     vlad            4 Jan  1 15:27 file
+</pre>
+</td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+
+<p><tt class="COMMAND">cp</tt> has many more options that are discussed in detail in the
+online manual page.</p>

+
+<p><tt class="COMMAND">mv</tt>(1) moves files from one place to another. Sounds simple
+enough doesn't it?</p>
+
+<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
+<tr>
+<td>
