copy is like cp but with a progress indicator and visual output
here's how to use copy:
copy -r /path/to/source /path/to/destination
source is the file or directory you want to copy, and destination is where you want to copy it to.
the -r flag means you want to copy recursively.
if the source is a directory and the -r flag is used, all its contents including subdirectories will be copied to the destination directory.
to copy a single file, use the path to the file as the source and the path to the destination directory (or the full path including new file name) as the destination.
copy /home/user/documents/file.txt /home/user/desktop
this will copy file.txt from the documents directory to the desktop directory.
to copy an entire directory, use the path to the directory as the source and the path to the parent of the destination directory as the destination, along with the -r flag.
copy -r /home/user/documents /home/user/desktop
this will copy the documents directory and all of its contents to the desktop directory.
