# lncpy :scissors: :page_with_curl:
Simple C program for copying lines between files
## Installing
Using the `make` utility to compile from source:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/buzzqrd/lncpy
$ cd lncpy/
$ sudo make install
```
## Usage
This program copies and pastes lines in a similar way to Vim.
Line insertions begin after the line that is specified.
The line numbers to specify start at 1 (not 0), which aligns with Vim line numbers.
```
$ lncpy [source lines] [source file] [insert line] [insert file]
```
### Examples:
Copy lines 12-41 (inclusive) from the file *old_code.c* to after line 33 in the file *new_code.c*.
```
$ lncpy 12-41 old_code.c 33 new_code.c
```
Copy line 15 in *logs.txt* to after line 48 in *report.txt*.
```
$ lncpy 15 logs.txt 48 report.txt
```
