Title: First timer: Finder Copy vs. cp
Hi--

If the Finder is based on Darwin, why are there no direct commands which will replicate a Finder Copy, i.e., copy all the metadata for a given file, not just it’s resource forks as in ditto or rsync?

I guess basically, the question from a programming standpoint, is there a way to replicate a Finder Copy without actually calling the UI?

Sorry for the n00b-ness of this question.

Thanks :)

All My Best,
Jeffrey
