    the same that you use when you copy/move things in shell. That’s why they called shell scripts:)

    Copying (from -> to)

    cp -r /srv/www/htdocs/downloads/rules /srv/www/htdocs/didebansnort/core/snort/rules
    

    we use cp -r to copy directory (r stands for recursive)
    and simple cp for copying of a single file.

    Moving (from -> to)

    mv /srv/www/htdocs/downloads/rules /srv/www/htdocs/didebansnort/core/snort/rules
    

    This is for nix/mac/cygwin

    P.S.
    While in the shell you can simply type in this to get a complete manual:

    man command_name
