+.TH uucp 1 "Taylor UUCP 1.07"
+.SH NAME
+uucp \- Unix to Unix copy
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B uucp
+[ options ] source-file destination-file
+.PP
+.B uucp
+[ options ] source-file... destination-directory
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.I uucp
+command copies files between systems. Each
+.I file
+argument is either a pathname on the local machine or is of the form
+.IP
+system!path
+.LP
+which is interpreted as being on a remote system.
+In the first form, the contents of the first file are copied to the
+second. In the second form, each source file is copied into the
+destination directory.
+
+A file be transferred to or from
+.I system2
+via
+.I system1
+by using
+.IP
+system1!system2!path.
+.LP
+
+Any pathname that does not begin with / or ~ will be appended to the
+current directory (unless the
+.B \-W
+or
+.B \--noexpand
+option is used); this resulting path will not necessarily exist on a
+remote system. A pathname beginning with a simple ~ starts at the
+UUCP public directory; a pathname beginning with ~name starts at the
+home directory of the named user. The ~ is interpreted on the
+appropriate system. Note that some shells will interpret a simple ~
+to the local home directory before
+.I uucp
+sees it; to avoid this the ~ must be quoted.
+
+Shell metacharacters ? * [ ] are interpreted on the appropriate
+system, assuming they are quoted to prevent the shell from
+interpreting them first.
+
+The copy does not take place immediately, but is queued up for the
+.I uucico
+(8) daemon; the daemon is started immediately unless the
+.B \-r
+or
+.B \-\-nouucico
+switch is given. In any case, the next time the remote system is called the
+file(s) will be copied.
+.SH OPTIONS
+The following options may be given to
+.I uucp.
+.TP 5
+.B \-c, \-\-nocopy
+Do not copy local source files to the spool directory. If they are
+removed before being processed by the
+.I uucico
+(8) daemon, the copy will fail. The files must be readable by the
+.I uucico
+(8) daemon, and by the invoking user. This is the default.
+.TP 5
+.B \-C, \-\-copy
+Copy local source files to the spool directory.
+.TP 5
+.B \-d, \-\-directories
+Create all necessary directories when doing the copy. This is the
+default.
+.TP 5
+.B \-f, \-\-nodirectories
+If any necessary directories do not exist for the destination path,
+abort the copy.
+.TP 5
+.B \-R, \-\-recursive
+If any of the source file names are directories, copy their contents
+recursively to the destination (which must itself be a directory).
+.TP 5
+.B \-g grade, \-\-grade grade
+Set the grade of the file transfer command. Jobs of a higher grade
+are executed first. Grades run 0 ... 9 A ... Z a ... z from high to
+low.
+.TP 5
+.B \-m, \-\-mail
+Report completion or failure of the file transfer by
+.I mail
+(1).
+.TP 5
+.B \-n user, \-\-notify user
+Report completion or failure of the file transfer by
+.I mail
+(1) to the named
+user on the remote system.
+.TP 5
+.B \-r, \-\-nouucico
+Do not start
+.I uucico
+(8) daemon immediately; merely queue up the file transfer for later
+execution.
+.TP 5
+.B \-j, \-\-jobid
+Print jobid on standard output. The job may be
+later cancelled by passing the jobid to the
+.B \-k
+switch of
+.I uustat
+(1).
+It is possible for some complex operations to produce more than one
+jobid, in which case each will be printed on a separate line. For
+example
+.br
+.in +0.5i
+.nf
+uucp sys1!~user1/file1 sys2!~user2/file2 ~user3
+.fi
+.in -0.5i
+will generate two separate jobs, one for the system
+.I sys1
+and one for the system
+.I sys2.
+.TP 5
+.B \-W, \-\-noexpand
+Do not prepend remote relative path names with the current directory.
+.TP 5
+.B \-t, \-\-uuto
+This option is used by the
+.I uuto
+shell script. It causes
+.I uucp
+to interpret the final argument as
+.I system!user.
+The file(s) are sent to
+.I ~/receive/USER/LOCAL
+on the remote system, where
+.I USER
+is from the final argument and
+.I LOCAL
+is the local UUCP
+system name. Also,
+.I uucp
+will act as though
+.I \-\-notify user
+were specified.
+.TP 5
+.B \-x type, \-\-debug type
+Turn on particular debugging types. The following types are
+recognized: abnormal, chat, handshake, uucp-proto, proto, port,
+config, spooldir, execute, incoming, outgoing. Only abnormal, config,
+spooldir and execute are meaningful for
+.I uucp.
+
+Multiple types may be given, separated by commas, and the
+.B \-\-debug
+option may appear multiple times. A number may also be given, which
+will turn on that many types from the foregoing list; for example,
+.B \-\-debug 2
+is equivalent to
+.B \-\-debug abnormal,chat.
+.TP 5
+.B \-I file, \-\-config file
+Set configuration file to use. This option may not be available,
+depending upon how
+.I uucp
+was compiled.
+.TP 5
+.B \-v, \-\-version
+Report version information and exit.
+.TP 5
+.B \-\-help
+Print a help message and exit.
+.SH SEE ALSO
+mail(1), uux(1), uustat(1), uucico(8)
+.SH BUGS
+Some of the options are dependent on the capabilities of the
+.I uucico
+(8) daemon on the remote system.
+
+The
+.I \-n
+and
+.I \-m
+switches do not work when transferring a file from one remote system
+to another.
+
+File modes are not preserved, except for the execute bit. The
+resulting file is owned by the uucp user.
