Consider the following dialog:
----
$ls
$touch a
$cp a nonexistent_directory/
cp: cannot create regular file `nonexistent_directory/a': No such file or
directory
$touch b
$cp a b nonexistent_directory/
cp: copying multiple files, but last argument `nonexistent_directory/' is not a
directory
Try `cp --help' for more information.

directory, but this file just does not exist.
