For example, as I'm typing away on the terminal and I need to do a
subdirectory-to-subdirectory copy, I ask myself, what was that
dang-blasted option for cp to do this and how do I specify the subdir
names (e.g., ./tools/* ? , ./tools/ ? , ./tools ?). I type:
I dunno what flavor you're running (HP/UX?), but if it has csh then you
might consider getting tcsh and running that. It has a help key, where
after you type 'foo^H' it looks for foo.help in a specified directory.
I chop some manual pages up so they fit on one screen and voila.
Even if it doesn't help you, somebody else might benefit. Good luck.

Excuse me, but didn't I tell you there's NO HOPE for the
