   another Unix Question
  how do I copy one directory to another? 
  cp dir1/ dir2/dir1 will be completely copied into dir2, so you will have a dir1/ and dir2/dir1/cp dir/* dir2/everything in dir1 will be copied into dir2, so you will have files in dir1, and copies of those files in dir2cp -r dir1/* dir2/the -r is for "recursive" and will handle any other directories that are in dir1atleast, I think that should be right. ;  I did that, but it said something along the lines of " That is a directory." I thought it meant that you cannot copy directories with that command. Also, how do I get out of joe? and How do I open a file. And do you know any good tutorial sites for Flex? ;  Gah uh let me think a moment.cp -r ./dir1/* ./dir2/*is sort of what comes to mind.How do you open a file? Hum, letter opener? hehe depends on WHAT you are trying to open the file in I''m afraid.When in doubt man cp   and read the damn thing Never touched joe, what is it? (when in doubt read the documtation)Usually with *nix stuff the documtation is actually usefull, unlike the dumbed down clueless friendly windows documtation. Well, at least in my opinion. (thinking mostly a GNU shell enviroment too btw) ;  I meant how do you open the a file in joe. It''s a text editor, but I can''t seem to figure out how to get out of it and it doesn''t say on the help. ;  I meant how do you open the a file in joe.

However I''ve never touched it...Ok, well presumably...joe ./READMEor something like that. I supose that is too easy though.As far as getting out, if it is a vi varient then :q! should do the  trick. -- Just a guess though. ;  Hit "<Ctrl-K> H" (^KH) to get a help window in Joe.  Ctrl-C should be sufficient to get you out of Joe without saving.  To save and exit, "^KX".To open a file (replacing the file you're currently editing), "^KE".  To insert a file into the file you're currently editing, "^KR".man pages are your friend.  The apropos command is also your friend.- dorixedit: pwned by html    [edited by - dorix on February 9, 2004 10:48:16 AM];  Ah more of a wordstar (I think it was) style key map then.. I''ll have to remember that. ;man cpcp -R /from/dir /to/dir
