Agreed, although it does not seem to exists on GNU/Linux since GNU's cp is different from BSD's. The feature is present on {Net,Open,Free}BSD. It's not that a big deal, is it? Eventually, the question could be: what should be limiting cp there? a max_path value, or... himself? I think the former's the best. Just my 2 cents. :) -- B+ A nation is a society united by a delusion about it's ancestry and by common hatred of its neighbours. B; -- Dean William R. Inge
