ttcopy(1)

ttcopy - copy files in a ToolTalk-safe way.

As shipped in IRIX 6.5.30. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.

NAME
     ttcopy - copy files in a ToolTalk-safe way.

SYNOPSIS
     ttcopy [ -pL ] file1 file2
     ttcopy [ -prRL ] path1 [ path2 ...  ] dir
     ttcopy -v
     ttcopy -h

DESCRIPTION
     ttcopy invokes cp(1) to copy files and directories, and informs ToolTalk
     about its actions so that the TT objects associated with the named files
     and directories can be duplicated at the same time.

     Differences from SunSoft ToolTalk:

     In the SunSoft ToolTalk installation, this command is ttcp.  On SGI, ttcp
     is a test program for TCP and UDP performance.

OPTIONS
     -p   Preserve.  Duplicate not only the contents of the original file or
          directory, but also the modification time and permission modes.
          (The modification times of TT objects are preserved only if you are
          superuser.)

     -r -R
          Recursive.  If any of the source files are directories, copy the
          directory along with its files (including any subdirectories and
          their files); the destination must be a directory.

     -L   Copy the TT objects of the files, but do not invoke cp(1) to copy
          the actual files.

     -v   Print the version of ttcopy.

     -h   Print usage information for ttcopy.

FILES
     /mountpoint/TT_DB     This directory is used as a database for the
                           ToolTalk objects of files in the filesystem mounted
                           at /mountpoint.

SEE ALSO
     cp(1), ttmv(1), tttar(1), ttsession(1)

BUGS
     The -i (interactive) option of cp(1) is not supported.

     The -p option does not preserve the modification times of TT objects
     unless you are superuser.
