copying files between two accounts
I tried to copy all the files from an account directory to my account's directory
I did this command:
cp ~account1/direct/* ~myaccount/
the problem is that I did it twice, the first time there was a copy of some files, the seconde time there was a copy
other files ? Which means the files were not the same...
Any ideas about the prob ?
