Re: Need to copy all content of a directory. cp Code: cp [options] file1 file2 cp [options] files directory Options -a, --archive Preserve attributes of original files where possible. The same as -dpr. -b, --backup Back up files that would otherwise be overwritten. -r, -R, --recursive Copy directories recursively. -s, --symbolic-link Make symbolic links instead of copying. Source filenames must be absolute.
