CANNOT copy

[Velvohm]

whenever I use 'cp' I get an error message saying

"bash: c: command not found" What does this mean???? And it never prints out cp only c.

I can use other commands such as cut from the same bin path so I don't understand why only this command does not work.

Also, if I rename 'cp' to 'cpy' or anything other than cp, then that works but I want to keep it as cp. Can anyone help?

Do you have any wierd aliases set? What does the command:
alias
show?

Hey, thanks for checking my problem out....

turns out u were right. it said

alias cp = 'c -i'

I don't how that changed because I don't remember actively changing it

I changed it back and it was working for that session but when I log out and back in its gone back to the original alias. Do u know how to change it permanently.

Thanks

Its probably set in a configuration file. Look in your home directory in .bashrc and .bash_profile. Also check the scripts in /etc/profile.d
