cp:tldr:58608

This command is used to copy a file from a source location to a target location.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

• cp: This is the command itself, short for "copy."
• ${path-to-source_file-ext}: This is the variable representing the path to the source file. You need to replace ${path-to-source_file-ext} with the actual file path, including the file name and extension.
• ${path-to-target_file-ext}: This is the variable representing the path to the target file. You need to replace ${path-to-target_file-ext} with the actual file path where you want to copy the file to, including the desired file name and extension.

For example, if you want to copy a file in /home/user/documents/source.txt to /home/user/backup/destination.txt, the command would look like this:

cp /home/user/documents/source.txt /home/user/backup/destination.txt

Make sure you have the necessary permissions to access the source file and write to the target location.
