Hi, Looking for a simple way to do a big copy at the command line. I have a bunch of files (maybe 100 right now, but it will grow) that I can find with locate and grep:
c2stable ~ # locate Correlation | grep Builder | grep csv /home/mark/Builder/TF/TF.D-17M-2009_06-2010_11/Correlation/TF.D-17M-2009_06-2010_11-V1.csv /home/mark/Builder/TF/TF.D-17M-2009_06-2010_11/Correlation/TF.D-17M-2009_06-2010_11-V2.csv /home/mark/Builder/TF/TF.D-17M-2009_06-2010_11/Correlation/TF.D-17M-2009_06-2010_11-V3.csv <SNIP> /home/mark/Builder/TF/TF.D-31M-2009_06-2010_11/Correlation/TF.D-31M-2009_06-2010_11-V4.csv /home/mark/Builder/TF/TF.D-31M-2009_06-2010_11/Correlation/TF.D-31M-2009_06-2010_11-V5.csv c2stable ~ # I need to copy these files to a new directory (~mark/CorrelationTests) where I will modify what's in them before running correlation tests on the contents. How do I feed the output of the command above to cp at the command line to get this done? I've been playing with things like while & read but I can't get it right. Thanks, Mark
