copy folders to user library using Terminal on OS X I would like to copy a folder to the user library using the OS X Terminal. The command line I use is cp -r. The problem is that the command runs, but it doesn't copy the folder and it returns no error.

Exist a special command for copying folders to user library?

Thanks a lot.
You are almost there. cp with the -R option and the arguments SOURCE DESTINATION

    cp -R /absolute/path/to/source/folder $HOME/Library


Replace /absolute/path....../folder with the real absolute path to the folder you wish to copy
