Is there a switch or special dos command that you can use to copy all files and subdirectories with their files in them?
Thanks

-C
Or cp -R ;)
In any Unix, not just GNU, you can use the "man" command to find out anything.
about that man command...how do you get OUT of it?
Press 'q'. Same way you get out of a normal less environment.
ahh..thanks. i kept trying Control-C, ESC, even the EMACS C-X C-C combination (and I think emacs sucks BTW), but nothing worked. Finally Alt+F4 did :D
-C
Emacs is fantastic, given the proviso that you know how to use it. Otherwise it's an absolute bastard.
Personally, I don't use it - I don't need the power just yet. However, things may change...
