The basic form of any Unix command is:
command_name options argument(s)
Most descriptions for commands such as those given in the On-line Manual use a much more precise syntax. For example:
cp [-iprR] filename ... directory
This syntax has a few simple rules. Apply them to the command description and you can understand how the command is to be used.
