[edit] Description

The "cp" command makes a duplicate of an object (shape or combination). If from_object is a shape, then it is simply copied to a new shape named to_object. If from_object is a combination, then a new combination is created that contains exactly the same members, transformation matrices, etc, and it is named to_object.

[edit] Example(s)

mged> cp prim1 prim2

Make a duplicate of combination prim1 and call it prim.

mged> cp comb1 comb2

Make a duplicate of combination comb1 and call it comb2. Note that this action does not duplicate the members of comb1, just comb1 itself.
