Re: [Alug] backing up whole directories/ X4.1.0

Obviously cp /etc/X11/ /etc/Xll.bak/ doesn't work- there must be a simple way on the command line- anyone know it?

Have you tried giving cp the -R flag? I usually use -Rpd (recurse, preserve, dereference) when making backups like that. See the man page for sure. MJR
