Summary 0001732: cp and mv EXIT STATUS does not account for -i
Description The description of cp exit status 0 is:
All input files were copied successfully.
and for mv it is:
All input files were moved successfully.
These do not take into account a "no" answer to a prompt when -i is used.

Compare with rm:
Each directory entry was successfully removed, unless its removal was canceled by a non-affirmative response to a prompt for confirmation.

Desired Action On page 2609 line 84793 section cp, change:
All input files were copied successfully.
to:
Each file was successfully copied, unless copying it was canceled by a non-affirmative response to a prompt for confirmation.

On page 3020 line 100451 section mv, change:
All input files were moved successfully.
to:
Each file was successfully moved, unless moving it was canceled by a non-affirmative response to a prompt for confirmation.
