-r seems to be documented already in cp(1) manpage "Historic versions of the cp utility had a -r option. This implementation supports that option, however, its use is strongly discouraged, as it does not correctly copy special files, symbolic links or fifo's." I don't see any opinion about -a option. I will close this ticket soon if no feedback. _____________________________________________________ DragonFly issue tracker <[email protected]> <http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issue184> _____________________________________________________
