        !            15: 
        !            16: cpdir  preserves as  much as  possible  of the  source structure.
        !            17: Files under dir1 go to identically named files under dir2.  Links
        !            18: between source files are preserved as links between corresponding
        !            19: target  files.  Preserved  source file  attributes  include mode,
        !            20: subject to the user's file creation mask.  If the user is not the

        !            25: only  the facility,  not the  contents.   It also  preserves real

        !            28: If the  target file corresponding to a source  file exists and is
        !            29: not a  directory, cpdir unlinks it  before copying.  This differs
        !            30: from the action of cp.
        !            31: 
        !            32: cpdir recognizes the following options:

        !            39: -ee   Print  error message and continue  execution after an error.
        !            40:      The default action is to exit on any error.

        !            42: -rr [_n]
        !            43:      Descend no more than n levels in the source hierarchy.  Con-
        !            44:      tents of dir1 are at level 1.  If missing, n defaults to 1.
        !            45: 
        !            46: -ss _n_a_m_e
        !            47:      Suppress the copy of file name, which should be the pathname
        !            48:      of the file relative to dir1.

        !            50: -tt   Test only, make  no changes.  With this option, cpdir prints
        !            51:      a report of all  errors (-e is implied), all unlinked target
        !            52:      files, and other  useful information, including a summary of
        !            53:      all external links into the target hierarchy that would have
        !            54:      been broken had the unlinking actions been executed.
        !            55: 
        !            56: -uu    Update  regular files.   Copy  the source  only  if it  was
        !            57:      created or altered more recently than the target file, or if
        !            58:      the target does not exist.
