Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to copy files/folders and show the files/folders? Post 302984303 by Imre on Monday 24th of October 2016 08:16:07 AM

My way forward to complete this is indeed to actually go in to the Source folder (which does exist) and then do a loop listing the objects in that folder.... and cp and echo what i am coying... the Source Target directory does exist....
I will have to put in return code checks to make sure the change directory works, and then i can put one in for the copy as well.
