I’m in a mac trying to learn terminal and i tried many deferent ways to copy my files and i just get the usual usage: cp [-R [-H | blablabla.
I’m proficient on windows and is super similar to terminal but i’m new here so please help.
I’m trying:
cp /Users/l3ny/OneDrive/PS Settings/Keyboard/l3ny.kys … /Users/l3ny/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CC 2017/Presets/Keyboard Shortcuts
I did tried with ~ at the beginning of source and destination but failed, also without the …. in between src and des and failed too.
I accomplish this task on windows like this:
Copy-Item “$SDKeyboar” “$CPhKeys” -recurse -force #with the path in a variable obviously.
also do you set var on terminal like this? my_var=longUrlVar . without spaces?
