1.1       root        1: #print
                      2: To create a second copy of a file, the easiest
                      3: way is to use the "cp" (copy) command.
                      4: If you tell the computer
                      5:   cp x y
                      6: a copy of file "x" is made and named "y".
                      7: Note that this is similar to "mv" in that a new
                      8: file named "y" appears, but the difference is
                      9: that the old file is not removed.
                     10: (If there was already a file named "y", though, the
                     11: old contents are lost; be careful.)
                     12: 
                     13: In this directory there is a file which has
                     14: a five letter name whose first four letters
                     15: are "part".
                     16: Print it out; it will tell you to copy
                     17: it and what to call the copy.
                     18: Do that and then type "ready".
                     19: #create X1
                     20: #create george
                     21: #create part00
                     22: this is not the right file and you shouldn't
                     23: have printed it.  Use
                     24:  part?
                     25: not
                     26:  part*
                     27: in this example.
                     28: #create part3
                     29: This is the file "part3".  I hope you
                     30: used a command like
                     31:   ls part?
                     32: or
                     33:   cat part?
                     34: to find it.
                     35: Make a copy of this file on file "george".
                     36: #user
                     37: #cmp george part3
