Re: cp without overwriting files but printing warning messages automatically?

yes can answer no :-D

thus "yes n | cp -i" should do the job

Hi,

-i can prompt warning messages. But I have to type n to avoid
overwriting files. I found 'yes' to print 'y' repetitively. Is there
something I can use to cp without overwrite files but with warning
messages printed automatically?
