+Copy files and/or directories.

+If only two arguments are specified and the \c{-R} or \c{-r} option is
+not present, then the first synopsis is assumed where \c{cp} copies
+\i{src-file} to \i{dst-file} failing if either filesystem entry is
+a directory or the \i{src-file} entry does not exist.
+
+If only two arguments are specified, the \c{-R} or \c{-r} option is
+present, and the second argument does not end with a directory
+separator, then the second synopsis is assumed where \c{cp} copies
+\i{src-dir} as \i{dst-dir} failing if \i{src-dir} filesystem entry
+does not exist or is not a directory or if a \i{dst-dir} filesystem
+entry already exists.
+
+If more than two arguments are specified and the \c{-R} or \c{-r} option
+is not present, then the third synopsis is assumed where \c{cp} copies
+two or more \i{src-file} files into the \i{dst-dir} directory as if
+by executing the following command for each file:
+
+\
+cp src-file dst-dir/src-name
+\
+
+Where \i{src-name} is the last path component in \i{src-file}.
+
+In this synopsis \c{cp} fails if a filesystem entry for any of the
+\i{src-file} files does not exist or is a directory or if a \i{dst-dir}
+filesystem entry does not exist or is not a directory. Note also that
+the last argument must end with a directory separator.
+
+Finally, if more than two arguments are specified and the \c{-R} or
+\c{-r} option is present, then the fourth synopsis is assumed where
+\c{cp} copies two or more \i{src-path} files or directories into the
+\i{dst-dir} directory as if by executing the following command for
+each file:
+
+\
+cp src-path dst-dir/src-name
+\
+
+And the following command for each directory (\i{src-path} that ends with
+a directory separator):
+
+\
+cp -R src-path dst-dir/src-name
+\
+
+Where \i{src-name} is the last path component in \i{src-path}.
+
+In this synopsis \c{cp} fails if a corresponding filesystem entry for
+any of the \i{src-path} files and directories does not exist or is
+of a wrong type or if a \i{dst-dir} filesystem entry does not exist
+or is not a directory. Note also that the last argument must end with
