I cannot get the cp utility to accept the -f or the --force command-line
option.
This is probobly due to the fact that cp is an alias to 'cp -i', you
can see what aliases there by typing 'alias' in your shell.
$ alias
alias cp='cp -i'
$ cp -f foo bar /tmp
cp: overwrite `/tmp/foo'? y
cp: overwrite `/tmp/bar'? y
$ unalias cp
$ cp -f foo bar /tmp
