In a terminal session, I have navigated to the voice dream writer folder of 
iCloud
 and I now want the ability to copy that folder’s contents to my main documents 
folder. Here is the command I have been attempting in terminal, which is 
returning a usage error.

CP *.* ~documents/VoiceDreamWriter/

I used to be a wiz with DzOS, and I know UNIX isn’t all that dissimilar, but I 
can’t figure out my mistake.
Can anyone tell me the syntax for copying the contents of a folder to another 
folder?
BTW: the reason I’m doing this in terminal
 and not in finder is because the contents of the ~library/mobile 
documents/VDW/documents folder aren’t visible to finder, but they are in 
terminal.

Any help appreciated.
